Wow 274k !! Did the thing ever cool off LOL !! Is the original motor still in it? What kind of oil do u use? Do u drive it hard?:nana:
98 Forumla 203k stock motor.
96 T/A 201k stock motor.
Both run GREAT! Moble 1 their entire life.
02 ws6 140,000
98 trans am 124,000
just passed 40,000. does that count :)
Heck, in my books, that counts almost as a new car!!!!
I just bought my '98 T/A with 145K, Its my second LS1, Got my first when I was 16 in highschool with 26k on her, Sold it when I went to college for money and promised myself I'd get another, Here I am 23 and I love this car. Its a clean, unmolested example of a high mileage LS1, I plan on doing everything to it that I never got a chance to do to my 99 Z28.
Oh it is nice I picked her up for 5,500 cash. She's all mine til the day I die... Or she does... one or the other... Thing is my cousin is always telling me how much nicer his 40 thousand mile "Anniversary" Z28 is so much nicer but thing is he still owes like 3 more years on it and I have a Title to mine clean and clear
I bought a '98 Arctic White, WS6, M6 new from the factory back in '98 and paid 31K for her. Kept her til she had 152K, when I totalled her. You got a pretty good deal on yours! I knew even at 152K miles, it still had another 50K easily. From 10K, I used Mobil1 synthetic and a low micron oil filter. It's hard knowing what history your car has had not knowing firsthand what care has been taken or not taken. I knew exactly what mine had and I was like you, wanted to keep her til Jesus comes back. This one is a 2000 with 126K and it smokes blue on cold start-ups. Obviously not taken care of as it should have been. Hope yours lasts as long as possible~!!!
Yeah biggest reason I got her was because she was totally stock and carfax checked out good I'm the 3rd owner no wrecks. First thing I did what swap out all fluids for Royal Purple, I know I've heard some bad reviews on here about the stuff but I run it in my other vehicles because a guy I work with sells it and I get a good deal. Also about week after I got her back in september I got a set of Y2K Vette Wheels...Always wanted a set. Also a new lid and ram air setup put on her. Also I got a new set of Hooker headers and Y-pipe I'm still yet to get on. Yeah big plans yet for this car shes going to be everything I couldn't afford in highschool.

Here's a link to a pic after I got my rims on...Not to sure if it will work though???
No, it's asking for your user name and password in the facebook window. What I recommend is getting a photobucket account set up if you don't already, sending your pics to photobucket, then once you get the pic uploaded, click on the "IMG code", right click, left click 'copy', then go to the "reply to thread" page here on LS1.com and right click and 'paste' in the reply window. This will link that pic in photobucket to this reply window. That is the easiest way to show us pics of your ride. If you need any more help, let me know.
2000 TA 110k mi purchased it with 105 hoping to get over 220:flex:
