Iam thinking about buying a used one with 500 miles on it.do you think it would be a good idea to buy one used?

I bought one used for about 1/2 of the new cost.... but I knew the car it was coming out of. Worked fine for a couple years, and I sold it again along with my T56 to someone doing an M6 conversion. He never had any problems with the clutch that I was aware of.

the guy iam buying it off of said he never brought it to the track or anything just 500 miles..even if you beated on it yoiu think it would even harm it?

The 30th SS convertible mine came out of was making about 750HP when he decided to put in a TH400.... and he took it to the track a lot. I got the complete Street Twin including hydraulics (slave had been modified, which was the way McLeod handled it many years ago), the T56, and a nylon clutch explosion blanket for less than 1K. But he never really abused it, because he was afraid of breaking something. I also raced with it a bit, doing some 5,000+rpm dumps with huge slicks, and it didn't seem to harm it at all.

I bought mine used almost 2 years ago from Jason Short. He had used it in his 9 second na firebird. I have had no problems with it, works great. Mcloed will rebuild it for around 300 dollars so if you get a good deal, I would say go for it. Just make sure to get all the parts.
Hope this helps.
