Question- Since you hail from the land up north - when you say 200K miles then you have about 321,900 kilometers showing on the odometer - right? That's a huge number to stare at. I got mine March 2016 and only have 29800 miles - I'll never reach 100K miles within my ownership - let alone double that. You must live in your car!

Yea, the valves were a little shocking, but not a lot.
Yes, KM is over 306000,, so Im not quite at 200K miles, but close enough to claim it. Its cool to see it actually - thinking I've enjoyed so much wheel time. A few roadtrips each year - headed south to wander the roads. A weeklong trip will see about 3500-4500 KM's. Thats a vacation for me.
I have a little over 5000 engine hours according to the dashboard. 1000 idle hours.
Yea, I suspect I have a pretty unique set of pictures of an LT1... and will for a while. Why isnt GM calling ????
