Joe- there used to be a shop off of 646 and FM517 that dealt in truck pcm's might be worth a call to see if they know of anyone who tests automotive pcm's.

seems like the VATS to me, i have heard several LSX cars that have this issue. lights pop on and they have to wait 20-30minutes before it'll start again. grab a new key and cylinder and check it out. couldnt take too long mate.

well i replaced the key and cylinder. but no luck with the problem. went ahead and pulled the harness and am going to have it redone as i found a couple of small problems with it. want this thing to be as reliable as possible seeing that ill be doing some road trips and some out of town car shows this summer.

I would say lace your storage unit with some rat poison but it would suck to find dead rats in the middle of summer a few days latter, they tend to smell like some thing died.
