What's the story with LCD screens and the heat. I wonder if they will last if you park it outside for too long?

Sound like its going to be a nice ride Start saving your penny's for a new turbo sooner than you expect cause old stock units don't last to long being boosted. My old stock one lasted on 12 psi for around 8 months then the bearing crapped out. Then got a new turbo and the head gasket blew out. Just something to think about.

If I had to buy a commodore from the 80's it'd be a VL Calais. Can't wait to see it.
