I'm the 3rd owner of a 94 Z28 LT1. 1st owner got 12K and blew an engine and sold it with 114K, 2nd owner opti went out and blew head gasket then blew engine at 144K, I bought it - rebuilt the engine - now with less than 1K , 145K total. It will last with abuse if you do the right Maintenance and keep fresh oil and not let it overheat. Can't help on your Stroker decision.

'94 5.7L Z28 LT1 58k miles. I bought it with 53k and in the 2 months I've had it it's got close to 59k. Nothing too major besides having to replace the distributor about a month ago. I drive about 75 miles a day just to work and back, then add another 20-30 miles/day just in errands daily. I'm just waiting for the waterpump to go out, I hear those are pretty frequent in Camaros.

i have a 78 RS with 198,000 miles on er, but my friend had a 94 LS with a little over 120k and the radiator had sssooo much stop-leak in it that the entire thing clocked and erupted taking off the radiator cap, turns out the car salesmen had been violating several laws for a while and it was his 3rd lot under a new name lol

Cammy has 91,000 something miles on her right now, only engine problem was just after I got her the water pump needed replaced and hasn't bugged me since. I drive her pretty nicely though and I feel her pain every time a pothole sneaks up on us!!

'96 Camaro 3.8L V6
All stock, except the wheels

288K and going. I'm the third owner. First owner drove a long daily commute, so most of those are highway miles. Second owner didn't keep close enough tabs on temperature and blew the engine out. He replaced the engine, and I've done a few other repairs since then (mostly related to the engine blowout).

These cars are very long-lasting.

And I abuse the s*** out of my car on a daily basis... Is that the norm or did I get a "Wednesday" car?

No, that is not the "norm" to abuse the s*** out of it.
