1983 Holden Commodore VH SL/E 4.2 Litre V8 from Australia and New Zealand
Summary:
Best Commodore invented
Faults:
LPG caused 2 burnt out valves and the block to die.
Boot release button has stopped working.
General Comments:
This car is the best Commodore ever built.
The power is pretty good and the interior and two tone paint caps it off.
Once I got the motor reconditioned and bored out it had a tremendous amount of power.
BE WARNED - If you put LPG on this car be prepared to recondition the motor.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Champ, All of the old 3.3 engines will run into valve problems on LPG eventually cause they don't have hardened valve seats thus the need for leaded petrol.
