Before i pulled the stocker it had 138,xxx and only smoked a little bit on hard acceleration. I was on the 2nd clutch (first one went at 83,xxx), the 2nd water pump (first one went at 90,xxxish), the 2nd opti (replaced at a little over 100,xxx but it was still working), 3rd transmisson (1 rebuilt because i cleaned the 2nd gear stack, and 1 used because i blew the 1-2nd and 3-4th syncros), and the 2nd rear end (blew doing 85mph half way between MA and Lousianna).

My 94 Z just turned 136,XXX with over 40 psi oil pres. and averaging 20 mpg on the highway. I run Mobil 1 and just recently had to replace the intake gaskets and was surprized on how clean it was on the inside. Still runs strong too!

my stock LT1 had 130,000 miles on it before I pulled it for the 383. it still ran 100 mph traps through the quarter with a failing opti.

115k on the grape, in the 12's with mods, and close to 30 MPG. The mileage is due to me still running the 2.59 stock gearing.

I started spraying my LT1 at 100K and did so until I hit 160K then I sold it and it is still running strong on the juice. From what I hear at least

I have almost 205,000 miles on mine now. The engine is still all stock (heads/cam, etc). It's had a 175 shot on it for 7 years now, and never had a problem. I'm still on the original head gaskets even :p

With bolt ons only, no nitrous, it goes 12.80's @ 108 on Nittos.
