- FC HOLDEN with 5LT V8 (VT)
OK so I have a challenge for you all out there. I have an FC Holden that I have painstakingly replaced all the wiring using a VT donor car to supply that plus the engine/gearbox.
My wife said I have to keep the original speedo and I have all the VT Commodore dash buttons mounted in the glove box including power, mode, hazards etc. I'd like to be able to see the information displayed on the LCD at the bottom of the instrument cluster on an individual LCD panel that I can either mount in the glove box too or as a same size LCD panel in the dash under my 55year old speedo.
SO THE CHALLENGE IS: Can anyone tell me how to make an external LCD readout panel to simulate that of the dash? I already have a vss converter electrical to mechanical so my speedo works but would really like all the other info that you can get on the LCD display.
Side note, can anyone tell me what power I can expect with VTII V6 with pacemaker extractors, 2.5 inch exhaust to tip, k&n filter, stage 4 memcal chip?
I figure that with an LSD and a car that weighs 1100kg should go allright....
Thanks in advance
