Only 18K miles on the supercharger?  I put 42K on my 93 LT1 with the Powerdyne without changing the belt and it towed a boat as well!

I try not to drive the car much, it horrible on gas and I don't feel like fixing what breaks(which is why I don't race it yet).

third gens do have issues from time to time.....but they are 19-29 years old, the tpi is a barbaric fuel injection system now. they have issues from time to time, but i still prefer a third gen over any other generation f-body

A couple years back, I was pulling parts off a 3rd gen with over 36X,XXX miles on it...even with the boost chances are good of it lasting! I wonder how loud the piston slap would be on an LS1 at that mileage. Opti replacement would be in the double digits

Obviously it's not as cool as the Catfish and Sebring's that we call 4thgens but everything on it works. |
