Too many miles?
I'm lookin to buy a used LT1 F-body. Does a 1995 with 93k miles sound ok? Will the motor be trustworthy with that many miles on it? Can it be used on long distance trips, highways, etc. Not to mention the occasional race or "spiritied drive"?
Thanks |

these motors are almost bulletproof if well maintained. Take a look under the car for oil leaks, (intake oil leak). Drive the car around and see if you notice any hesitation under 2,000 rpm or at high rpms.
Just a few things I would check by the way, 150,000 miles and running strong... (of course it's up in the air right now, replacing the starter and getting the headers recoated!) |
