    I hear that all the time, and I dismiss it. . . 260k and I can still roast 'em! lol I figure that if the engine wants to go out in a burnout, that just means I can swap in my V8 sooner! I have a the 76 Datsun 280Z still, so that will become my DD when the 'maro goes into the garage to have the engine rebuilt. . . I have big plans, y'all. . .
    Yeah but I had my intake gasket go out and the coolant got in the oil.. Dexcool + bearings = sudden death

          06CamaroDude, why do you have the black cover (I think it's called "lipstick" or something) over the front of the car? Is there damage that needs to be hidden?
