Re: 86 CGT Digi-Dash??? What's up?

>From the Bentley, the 2.3l engine was put into production in August 
of 86.  I was always told that the 2.3l only showed up half way through 
the production year, making the 87 model year a 50/50 split between 
the 2.2 and 2.3, more or less.  I was also told that the digital dash was 
standard on the 87.  It might have found its way into your car if it was 
made very late in the model year.  Other than that I have no theories.
