is 135,000 miles alot for a 5.0? been looking around at engines incase I can't sell my car. I i cannot, then I will drop in a cheap 5 liter...


or sell the car for much cheaper

93 LX FiveO

i wouldnt just "drop it in"

rebuild it.. do a junkyard h/c/i swap

u could have a really nice engine for under a grand

cool, thanks.

I'm keeping my options open since the fate of my '86 is unknown. I'm mostly loking to get out of my beater buick that doesnt start when it rains (parents say it is a nice car... **** dat... paint is falling off,engine floods out all the time...despite a new carb, it still doesnt work right...rust is popping up everywhere and the car leaks everywhere....) it is such a pain when your 160 miles away from home in college and AAA will only tow the car 100.... It's worth more for insurance money than the money I have to put into it to keep it running...

I had to replace the distributor, and fix the choke in the parking lot when it was 22 degrees last december...

REEETTAARRDDEED!!!

i bought my poorly maintained 95 gt for 2K with just under 170,000 under its shoes and it still runs decent. needs a bit of work due to the lack of maintance but its still up there.

mytoyota friends say that it's lasted 160,000 miles longer than expected. its no wonder why people are so easily hated...
