There's many out there. Mileage isn't a big factor with that kind of stuff.

You can run 12's with stock motor and exhaust. Suspension is where it's at.

I've got 115,000 miles with lots of 12 second passes and no issues until I tried to upgrade the tranny. My stock one never missed a beat, but I haven't been able to get an aftermarket one to work yet.
