To change the price in a bank register, right-click the stock split and select "Edit Exchange Rate" from the pop-up menu. In the exchange rate section of the resulting transfer dialog select the "amount" radio button and enter the number of shares to let GnuCash calculate the price. Remember that doing it that way avoids rounding issues that can arise when you enter the price and have GnuCash calculate the amount.
