This car was by far the BEST purchase I have EVER made!

Hmm, i guess i dont feel bad then, I was just worried with the miles that the engine may be near its end, but some of you are hitting 200k, maybe I will see what H/C will do for the car

110K and still going. Engine survived a rollover accident at 150MPH and then a bad head gasket in its 2nd body. Replaced the head gaskets and been running good since. Planning on rebuilding it before I do anything to the cam/heads.

My brother's bone stock 95 LT1 T/A only made it to 175K.

I've got 210K on mine and still goes strong.

I change the oil regularly and except when I'm wanting to play around, I baby the car.
