Re: how many miles on your LT1

63,333 As of when I just pulled into my driveway tonight. lol kind of ironic how i saw the mileage and noted it, and come on here and theres a mileage thread. But yeah so 63,333 and 20,000 of them are mine. got it with 42k on it last august. No MAJOR problems yet *knock on wood* 2nd opti, coil, and little things. Just an issue with the car stalling sometimes.

Re: how many miles on your LT1

113,000 on mine. The only thing I have had to do since I bought it (71,000 miles), is a fuel pump. My intake manifold gasket needs replaced right now, and will be within a few days. It's still a strong motor, but I long for an LS1. LOL

Re: how many miles on your LT1

Just purchased a 1997 Z28 with 210,000 miles, needed motor mounts, tranny mount, rear stabilizer bars and exhaust. Replaced all but the exhaust and only runs 15's in the 1/4. Cats are bad, and missing the muffler.

Re: how many miles on your LT1

130,000 miles...only thing pretty much has been replacing the fuel pump. Few minor things here and there but other than that she's been great. Hopefully she'll stay that way till after college. I also long for an LS1, well i'd go with the LS2 actually.

Re: how many miles on your LT1

126K, but had major issues between 90k - 93K (Opti, A4 Tranny, ign. wires, fuel pump) Needless to say not a good few months I had then, and thats when I was in college, all the beer $$ went into the car. But I've been rewarded with 30k+ perfect miles and I hope many, many more. The 200K+ mile cars are very encouraging to hear about!!

Re: how many miles on your LT1

I have 105,000 on it and I have owned it since last Febuary when it had 82,000 on it. It is my daily driver that I commute to college with, but I wouldn't want to do it in any thing else. I have changed Opti's twice since I have had it (one because it was defective) and I am really just starting to work on it since my race car plans fell through. I have averaged about 21 MPG with it and it is an A4. Before mods it always got about 20.5 MPG and after mods now it stays right at 23 and I still have to replace the factory O2's.
