What did you run in the 1/8 on that pass and what was your speed? I thought my car did well being stock bc i pulled an 8.74 in the 1/8 @ 84mph with my 109k mile motor stock.

No weight reduction? Thats an insane MPH for a stock A4, its even good for a M6 car.

The fact that most police depts. dumped mustangs and went to these says a LOT. I am pretty sure the mustang was cheaper.

Mileage is just a number. No one in here would have wanted to get my old 01 with 36,000 miles on it. If it properly taken care of it will run for many many miles.
I just recently sold my old bone stock 94 Z28. It had 130,000 miles on it no leaks didn't burn oil and ran consistent 14.10 at 98 mph A4 with 3.23 gears.
I have had two 3800s with over 200,000 miles on them and one 4.3 that I ran out to 270,000 miles, original tranny and not a valve cover removed.
I think the LSx based motors can do that.

Saw a Z28 M6 at the gas station today, had full exhaust and 148K miles on it, no smoke and sounded good, guy used 10-40 oil and his pressure looked to be about 50psi and it was not quite warmed up, but the needle was NEAR the 210* mark. Seemed solid to me!

when im at 1/2 or between 1/2 and 3/4 on teh temp gauge, i have 22-25psi. which is normal.

You have an LT1, He is probably talking LS1, but you have good pressure for a SBC/LT1 with that kind of miles.
