I love this thread.

I have a 94 with only 72xxx miles on it. I love hearing that I potentially have many more years of romping on my LT1 without problems.

I hope mine lasts. I bought it with 72k last year, and its for 105K now. I maintain it really well but I dog on it HARD.

About to throw the nitrous on when I get my truck back.

How much did you pay for the kit and how do you like it?

No No No ...
Major mileage milestones should be celebrated with spontanious roadside sex.

Unless of course, you are alone ... in which case ... push the magic button.

You would be very surprised at some of the things LT1's can endure. I gave my red one a BEATING. Now its sold and getting an even harsher beating. 150xxx and still blowin away other cars :-)
