Default Yank SS3600 on high mile LS1....
Recently purchased an 01 SS from a 1 owner ( female) driven. The car is in GREAT condition... You would never know it has 144K... ( roughly 10k per yr). Fluids have been changed religiously, trans fluid is pink and smells like it's right out the bottle. I have always used Yank SS 3600's in my 4th gen A4's...
What is your opinion about adding one with this high mileage? The car is now a weekend, sometimes cruiser.. It won't see a drag strip ( w this set up). No cam, internal work.... Just bolt on's, stall....
what say you?

I've got 182,000 and I didn't hesitate 10,000 miles ago to put a Yank SS3600 in.

My SS3600 and the TCI SF3000 I had before have been in the car for almost 90k miles, if that tells you anything. Total mileage about 132k. Beautiful car, BTW!

Pewter with ZR1s and tint is such a beautiful color combo on these cars.

And yes, stall away, that's still low mileage now days lol!
