Hey guys, here is the problem. I have a 2001 ls1 with 117,000 miles and I was thinking about doing a head and cam package. I have $5,000 to spend on parts. I was just wondering if the miles are to high on the engine to do the build ?


Any replys would be appreciated...

I did mine at 110k in october. I'm almost at 119k now, so far so good.

Do a cam and rearend now and save the rest for when the motor goes.

you should be fine as long as the motor was taken care of meaing oil changes and tune ups

Thanks guys.. I mean i dont want to go crazy doing alot of upgrades and spending more than my budget allows considering that i might sell the car in 2 years and get the new 5th gen camaro..

I just did heads/cam on mine at 105k. Heads, cam, oil pump, timing chain, lifters, pushrods and springs/retainers.
