147,000 it's a 2002 and there is no oil ever underneath it it's not the oil pan gasket and it only smokes when i start it and get on it so my quess is valve seals or rings.
when i first read that i thought you ment do heads cam or blower on the daily civic, i was like this kids a moron. you couldn't pay me enough to choose a civic over a C5 especially when you factor in the FUN factor.
I'm not really thinkin about getting it. my cavy burns alot of oil and i was looking for a motor then a whole new car and i couldn't help myself but to look up corvettes and 8,400 is pretty cheap but i need a winter beater.
for a daily but i hate automatics.

The engine also has the TrailBlazer’s trademark pass-through oil pan. The pan’s cast-in passage allows the front differential’s half-shaft to run through the pan instead of under it. This helps keep the engine mounted lower in the chassis for better balance and a lower center of gravity. x
i remember hearing when the thunderbirds were down in south america they were doing the centerpoint maneuver and one plane was told to speed up and it accidentally broke the sound barrier and shattered every window in the parking lot.
my grandpa worked on b-29's and B-36's and all the SR-71's. he doesn't even get recognition for vietnam cuz the SR-71's mission was classified then and speaking of which all the specs you find about the SR-71 on the internet are wrong i hope i don't get a visit from the men in black now. lol
i just realized why this one looks so much better then what i remember. it doesn't have that stupid grey piece on it.

Ariel atom but with an F-16 style full cockpit and canopy and single seat positioned in the middle and further up so I can fit an LSx with Kenne bell non-transverse mounted. like this.
and possibly AWD with the Prodrive Diffs.

Actually now that i think about it there is a guy in town who has a turbo LT1 and he tunes it himself. maybe he could help you out or atleast point you in the right direction. if you want his number let me know.
LMAO
LS1's are to cheap not to buy one. if you plan on modding it will save you money in the long run. austin sold his engine with a T-Rex and trans for $3000.
you bastard i just went to quote your "has never laid off any of it's employees and you changed it. they laid off 800 in august of 2008 and 200 in texas and lots more
