Almost 130k but motor is weak and needs a rebuild. But there are no oil leaks and nothing actually wrong with it. Just ready for a cc306 a p&p job.

Re: how many miles on your LT1

189k on mine, ran a 14.0 @98 on a 2.0 60' with mods in my sig, as you can see she's a bit tired but still runs strong, believe it or not it is still on the original optispark. (knock on wood) My uncle bought it new so i know that. Everything is original on the engine becides normal tune up items like plugs and wires. I'm rebuilding it and throwing in either a cc306 or gm 847 this spring.

Re: how many miles on your LT1

145k, stock bottom end, I replaced the heads this summer but they were in great condition, I did have a lifter fail and take out the cam, but new cam and heads, the bottom end hasn't been touched...although I do have an oil leak.

Re: how many miles on your LT1

Little over 66,000, I never really drive it any more, runs fine though. Did drive it to the beach last weekend, 135 miles round trip, ran fine. Have a daily driver now, so it's pointless to drive the Trans Am.

Re: how many miles on your LT1

160,000 and it ran 13.8 a few months ago. Put the last 60,000 on myself. Runs good (Trying to figure out the above 3,000 popping yet no power loss issue) and looked good until a guy backed into my quarter last week. Putting LT's on this week
