Re: how long have you owned your truck

i bought the clone last may, put 15k on it since with many weekends at the track, the only things that have gone wrong were a broken motor mount and a slipping trans, valve covers have yet to come off in 115k.

Re: how long have you owned your truck

I bought my truck stock in August of 2000, in 2004 had the current motor installed and have been running it since. I have about 2-3,000 miles on the new motor/ trans. No major problems yet (knocks on wood over and over again)

I bought my truck back in 2002 with ~83K miles, rebuilt the motor this past summer when it had 105K miles on it

Re: how long have you owned your truck

My dad bought the truck new in 93, didn't tear into it until 2004 with almost 150k on it. I could have gotten the stock motor running and healthy again without opening it up, but since I was ripping the rest of the truck completely apart, why not :lol: ?

Re: how long have you owned your truck

I've only had mine for about 8 months and its a 93.

I was told it had a new motor put into it at about 100K but that turned out not to be true, it had a new tranny put into it then.

It has 173k on it now with the original motor and I'm currently prepping for a new build.
