I have a 1991 Isuzu Trooper completely stock 4 cylinder with a 5 speed with 180,000 miles plus on the odometer.

1988 Chevy Cavalier 160,000+ miles completely stock

1975 Ford F-100 92,000 miles 302 v8 with a C4 automatic and a ford 9" rear end custom wooden bed because original had rusted into nothing.

1992 Jeep Wrangler my baby Had a 4.0 6cylinder and 904 automatic I swapped a Golens stroker motor into it, it is a 4.6 liter 6 cylinder took the horsepower from 195 to 300 and the torque went from 225 to 385lbsft. I removed the leafspring suspension and put a 7 inch lift using long travel arms and coil springs on it. The tranny was swapped out for a 727 with reverse valve body. I swapped the original transfer case out for an Atlas with a 4.3-1 low range .The axles were weak so I went with Dana 60 high pinion conversions front and rear with 4.56 gears. It currently rides on 35 inch BFG all terrain KM's (mud tires) when they wear out I plan on going up to 37 inchers. Some day I might take some time and fix the jeep up

but until then I guess I will have to settle for how it is right now.
