I bought my 93 in early July with 82,000 miles, just rolled 84,000 miles. The transmission started slipping a little after I bought it, but I got it for a good price and alot of our cars need transmissions at 80,000 miles. There are a lot of bolt ons put on the car. The throttle body needs the tv cable hook up which is only for 93, in 94 they started the 4l60e. The transmission has a reverse valve body, so if it breaks, it is hard to find a core. It is a 700R4 with a reverse valvebody. Other than that, a few of the parts will be different, but it is still the same as any other 93-97 fbody. The cool thing is that many people think its a crappy car because its got the lt1, some guys in an ls1 thought that, and lost this summer...Good luck finding one, I have alot of fun in my car.
