How many miles have you put on your heads/cam setup?

I have one of two choices....

Heads/cam on my current LT1 bottom end and transmission with 90k miles and complete my suspension/chassis upgrades - main thing I'm worried about is my motor ... spinning main bearing, rod bearings etc .... revving ot 6500 rpm on that motor isn't going to do it much good if you do it long enough (which i would undoubtedly do)

or...

a LS1 z28 to buy for $13.5k with a cam, MAC LS1 headers, 12 bolt 33 spline strange rear end, front and rear sway bars, hotchkis torque arm, Eibach pro springs, KYB shocks, subframe connectors, and RS body kit with tinted windows, rear blackouts, and rear CAMARO inserts .... also, the car has a new transmission and the car has 24k miles.....

I'd do this assuming I could get $8-8.5k including my current mods ... i'd like to get that out of my current Camaro .... what do you guys think?

Honestly I would get the LS1, has real low miles, already has a cam and a 12 Bolt. Not to mention some other things. Seems like a good deal.
