The build doc lists LT1054. I don't have any of those on hand. Can I use a ICL7660CPAZ instead?

I believe that to use a 7660, pins one and eight have to be connected  to function optimally, which is not true for the 1054. See the Road Rage build doc, which is the source of all knowledge (at least mine :) ). Also, check out the max voltage that the circuit will see. 1054 tolerates 14 volts, 7660 is 12 volts.

Yeah, I just found the comparative documents of the different chips. Either way, I gotta order some more components, so I'll just throw a few LT1054s into the order. Thanks though!
