98 LS1 lifespan?
After reading some about the 98 LS1's having a "weaker" oil pump than the later models, I was just wondering. How many of you out there have actually had one fail in your 98? Anyone have a 98 that is holding up well over 100K? I know the motor is up to it, I am just basically addressing the oil pump issue.

I replaced my '98 LS1 after 73K miles with an LS6 longblock. It started knocking...I have no idea why and it's still sitting on a stand in my garage and I never opened it up to check. I did the swap in July of '04.
