i hope my ls1 holds out as long as these have. i have 72xxx on it now. had to replace some bearings in the rear at about 67xxx. i have a silverado with a 5.3L with 132xxx, so since it is ls1 derived, hopefully it too will last a while.

99 with 194,XXX looks just like the 98NBM_TransAm unit. Was driven 4 hours a day to work. Car runs great and looks real good to me for the use. Many car buffs never guessed the mileage and were shocked when I told them. Took it on a 1000 trip to Kanas City two weeks ago and it got 26-27 mpg going 80 with AC on. Not bad for a toy.
