Does 214,200 count? Lol. Car was very reliable up to 200k, at 201 replaced the motor due to a bad lifter. Now all the suspension bushings are going out, and I'm having a hell of a time with my power steering. Original alternator went to 203,000, and only went out then due to ps fluid dumping on it. Still on the original starter, fuel pump, coils, fans, tranny, u-joints, and I don't know what all else. I plan on this car seeing at least 400k before I get rid of it.

208,XXX daily driver. Take care of the oil and do regular tune-ups and the like and you won't ever lose power.

Been looking. And yes, I've searched. Care to point me to it? Or just a general idea of what I should do/check out right off the bat when buying an LS1 over 100K...

It has taken me 10 years, but this past weekend my '98 turned 100K. What I find kinda neat is the trip home from St. Augustine yesterday she got 29.9 mpg and it was quite windy.
My secret is to keep her on a mild Mustang diet.

The Mustang diet works! But it only took me less than 5 years to take my car from 39k to 214k... lol. It still devoured a Cobra the night before I pulled the original motor!
