anyone ever own an LT1?

No, I have the car that supposedly discontinued the SVT. I have the ST Focus with some mods done to it in intake, cams, exhaust, chip, port and polish and other shit. Looks all factory on the outside, but it goes. Does low 14's with it in the quarter. Had it smashed at 140 and kept going. Not sure how fast it actually went.

ST mmm 2.3duratec? mmm

Like everyone else said the mileage is a little high but not that high for a 95 and $5k isnt that bad. The optispark is about the only thing that you would have to watch out for. these cars are very fun and very reliable if taken care of. And 140 aint no problem. The car should have 3.42 gears and will pull hard up to 155 easy. Also 95 was the first year they used hardened pushrods. I've owner 3 LT-1's and a couple 3rd gens. LT-1's respond very well to bolt-ons and make a ton of torque. I think If I was you I would take the car. Do you know who the previous owner was?
