Just wondering how high the miles are on the LT1's in here. I have 169,405 and doing a cam if everything test out all right in Jan. What about you guys and what mods do you have?

 

i believe Krein MC has around 150k on his car, and he beats the **** out of it


I have 93k on mine, and i have been beating the **** out of it since 45k ITs holding up quite well...hopefully planny of miles ahead of me

 

110,000, bought it a 101k in August...Ran it 7 times at Englishtown..runs like new, bought it with the mods in sig.

 

125,000 hard miles on my 95 Z28, current mods are ripper shifter, 1.6 rockers, headers, flowmaster, lt4 knock module, 1le elbow, c.a.g.s. bypass, throttle body coolant bypass, k&n c.a.i.

 

OK I hope someone chimes in with more miles than what I'm seeing. 169,000 is quit a bit but I gotta say my friend has a 95 Honda Civic with 220,000 and all I hear is "you'll never see an american car get this many miles especially a hot rod" She says no major work has been done, but that of course doesn't mean the stuff isn't bad I'm sure the car has some hidden problems . I'm just sick of hearing people bash american cars saying how the qaulity is so much worse. Its true some cars are real bad here in america, but I'm sure there are some bad foriegn ones to. This reliability myth along with the I can get better gas mileage with just as much performance with a foriegn car really erks me.

 

Werd

 

i've seen an LT1 with more thatn 200K on it, it is a very strong engine, just keep the maintenance, oh yeah, mine has 115K on it, runs hard and beat all the mustang GT i've ever race

 

100k here

 

well I have just hit 160,000 and still running with no major problems

 

Do any of you high mileage guys notice that the car's quarter mile performance has gotten worse? Or is it still the same?

 

Mine has just over 108,000, and I am doing heads/cam right now It had the factory clutch in it after all those miles, lasted me about 500 miles of my foot...hehe

 

83,000 here. All mine too........ Running better than ever!

 

117,000 here car still runs strong gone through three trannies though

 

i have 110,000 miles on mine. I have blown up 2 4l60e's and now the th350 is holding up well.

 

not a LT1 but is a 1993 Chevy 350 wich is pretty much the same inside and I got 206,000 and still runs great, but my work van doesn't get the abuse that my TA gets either. 104,000 on the TA.
