Taking bets.........
OK, in the past 6 months I have replaced the clutch (2nd time in 30 days), the rear end diff, the radiator and last night put a new set of tires on it. She has 91, 302 miles, although I switched out engines last year for one with less than 40,000 miles. So here's the deal...............some of you know my history with this car. What would be your guess as to what I am going to have to replace next ???????????????? Taking bets.........................

Re: Taking bets.........
Opti replaced 2 years ago.........what is their shelf life ?

Re: Taking bets.........
You told us your car has a LS1, how would you have a opti??VBACHAWK wrote:Opti replaced 2 years ago.........what is their shelf life ?
my vote is the tranny, or engine next.
Re: Taking bets.........
The opti was when I had the LT-1. Switched out the engine about 1 1/2 years ago. I figure the LS-1 has about 65,000 miles. Good guesses, guys, but couldn't I just drive it a LITTLE until another major repair ????????

Re: Taking bets.........
Then my bet is nothing is going to break now.......the car is going to be stolen. J/K How difficult was that? I have a 97 Trans Am I am looking into putting an LS motor into.VBACHAWK wrote:That would be correct...............
