"Beat on a little" Now, thats just redundant, eh?

7,000 is alot on a motor... thats ALOT of 1/4 passes... and any nitrous passes already? Ever been refreshed?

Thats great for you. I did that with my old car. My T/A hasnt been on a race track since 2006. When or if I get this motor it wont see a track for a long time if at all. I am not trying to set any records or achieve any ET's I am just looking for a fun car that has a bad ass motor in it that in the future if I get bored with it , I can put a shot of N20 on it and turn it into a new car without having to worry about blowing it up. I will take it down a track again but not untill I get at least a Rear end. I am not a track guy anymore. Hell I moved back to NJ 2 years ago and was so happy that Atco was 8 miles from my house that I have raced there 1 time since I have been back.


Said its never had N20 on the motor. The guy was in the Navy stationed in Vabeach and got out earlier this year. He is from Rochester NY which is probably 500 miles or so from Vabeach. He had the motor installed in 2008 and said he took it easy for 1000 miles. He also said he drove the car back to NY 3-4 times since installed so that would account for a couple thousand of the 7,000 miles. I did not ask him how many passes he made if any at the track. The guy sells a bunch of parts on tech and his 150 + positive feedback is evident on how he does business with others.

Its like buying anything used that an important piece to your car. Trust between the buyer and seller. Was looking at a used 12bolt on LS1tech a while back. Guy said it has very little miles on it like 1100 or so and never raced but in seeing pictures of his car on his fquik page with with the 12 bolt installed and sitting on skinnny fats with MT ET streets on it makes you think. Turned out He ran it alot.

Thanks for the reply and you do have a very valid point. Thats why I am still up in the air about this. I can just do my heads and cam on my motor with 94,000 miles on it but I dont know if that would be a good idea or not. Then I could start to build the motor I want to build. The problem is I am married with a child and my car budget is not what it use to be.
