I paId 3,000 . The only problem ive come across is a bent pushrod due to my brother over reving. I bought it 4 years ago with 60,002 miles. And now it has 82,020. Seems a bit high if you ask me.

Like everyone else said, that is way too much money for a Z with 127k on it. If you are willing to drive a bit TX has plenty (and I mean plenty) of LT1's that will make the drive back for much less $$$.

It does make me a little sad tho, how little these cars are worth now. I prolly couldn't get 4K out of mine as it sits and I've put quite a bit of money into this pit.
