31,000, only thing I replaced so far is whole rear of body.........some truck decided it wanted my rear end for his front end. Oh well, his insurance paid for it and it looks and runs as good as new again.

I have a '02 CETA. It has 8000 miles on it. It's now my daily driver.

Had an exhaust bracket replace. It fell off.
Had the power stearing cap replaced. It leaked.

These Ls1's run forever and run very clean. Go for it.
