154,000 miles to much?
 

i found an ls1 ss with 154,000 miles on it for 4500..the car itself is in really good shape..i was thinking of it just as a dd, beater becuz of the miles...i know its alot of miles but is it beyond where an ls1 can still run good?

I would be more concered with the shape of the tranny on that car...i was looking at it last night online.

thats been listed for a while, id pick it up if i had a spare 4500 layin around

any engine that is cared for even a little can last a long time. my dad had a buick century for 470k and it still ran when it was donated to chairty.
i woudl say if it starts up good and has no clunks, rattles, or oil smoke you are in good shape. i wouldn't push it as a build up without freshening the engine and trans first, but for a cruiser or long term project i woudln't have a problem with it.

:stupid:...it might not be an lt1, but it'll still last a long time:p...probably has piston slap but thats OE

mine has 110910 and runs like a champ.

piston slap was mainly '01 and early 02, thats when the most complaints refer too. if i had 4500..id buy it.

my 01 silverado has the cold start piston slap. Gad its embarrasing

go 4 it
