Miles have very little to do with it on an LS. I had 230,000 on my 6.0 when I sprayed it. Plenty of others have spray 200,000+ engines. Obviously the risk only gets higher of something coming apart but it is still very low on a high millage engine.

Make sure you do everything correctly and you should have zero issues!

I sprayed 150 wet shot on my 93 LT1 Camaro from 166-229k miles. Not one issue, just depends how the motor is kept and proper tune.

75 is pretty mild, you shouldn't have any problems.
