    as far as i know, the TR6060 does not fit normal VT VZ commodes they have a different shape length whatevs so only fit VE+ the TR6060 is the better box and the Magnum is the updated T56 costs a bit though

    heater is nice and warm when moving but colder when stopped

    its BOILING hot when the car is moving as per usual but it tends to be only warm-ish when stopped its had a new tap maybe 10,000km ago? and a new water pump otherwise no temp issues i got 150,000km on it which is low on an LS1 i guess

    Which yellow top Optima battery to get

    but saying that... DANG... $254! that's cheap as... they're upwards of $350+ at super rice barn cheat since normal batteries are $150+... maybe worth it for the peace of mind

    VX Dash Cluster

    you need a tech2 program so FIRST thing you do is call around and ask mechanics who can do it then cruise ebay for a level 3 with the PRNDL **** maybe you will get lucky and find one out of a car identical to yours but in all likelihood you will get one out of a random car that wont match yours
