Default Who here has the highest ORIGINAL miles??
Just wanted to get an idea what kind of mileage I can expect out of my 11 year old LT-1 engine.
Rebuilds don't count

Yep, 146000 miles here. It's extremely easy to get these engines to outlast the rest of the car. And dirt.

Proper maintenance goes a long way.

Yes, proper maintenance does go a long way because I have a 95 Z28 LT1 and I have 168,000 on her and she still runs like the day I bought it.
