I have a 99 318, 4x4, slt, that runs flawlessly at 92k. Blackstone says
my oil is typical of an engine with less than 30k instead of one with
90k... I'm hoping this is a 200k truck...I finally got it set up like I
like it...

My Gen 3 has done amazingly well. I KNOW that I would've totally killed
any
import long ago. This R/T was my first vehicle. LOL

99 DA RC R/T
Worn rings but still runs great and has NEVER left me stranded. Will
get
some TLC of a .30 bore and forged pistons for the juice in Jan.
