i'd be willing to bet that the t/a didnt use any specialty "hot rod" oils or crazy amounts of zddp additive for its FT lifter/cam either.

It would be interesting to know what that trans am had for maintenance. I bought a 72 Dodge Charger with about that many miles from my neighbors. They bought it new, when I bought it the drivetrain was still untouched. Then we broke it on the way home flexing it’s muscles testing it out. That is what would have happened if I bought that TA. LOL.
