112,000 and it sits in the garage for a few weeks at a time. No oil consumption and does not leak.........Runs like a spotted ape(whatever that means).
I use to think the Chevy 350 was a bullit proof motor but I know better now!

With proper maintainence they can go in excess of 300,000+ miles without question. My mom parked her '89 GT seven years ago...and my dad and I started it up 3 years ago and it ran like a top. Unfortunately the entire car is in dire need of restoration...My dad is trying to give me the car (which I will after I'm done w/ my 66) and my mom is fighting it as hard as she can go.

145000 is what i bought mine with. previous owner beat on it, and it needed new fuel injectors only cuz some **** got in the tank. its now nearing 150000 and trust me, i beat on mine. replaced the water pump around 147000 and the alternator. now it needs a clutch. as for the engine itself, still has compression just need to retap the threads for a header bolt, then i should be good....it still goes fastttttt
