2006, 45k. Wiggle test at 30k showed a few valves at or just over the limit so they went off to AHP for some work (MS90 + .030 mill). Other than that, just headers, MF103 and a tune.

early 09Z bought used stock at 8500 miles, full HCI done at 46K miles, now at 55K.

OEM cat replaced for check engine light then ECM reflashed when 2nd check engine light came on and I showed the dealer the GM TIL that said not to replace cat for that code. Battery replaced in 2015.

Stock cam here, too. I went with a .040 head gasket so I should be close to 12:1 (I think?). I ran the details past Kohle and he didn't see a problem. I have easy access to 93 octane gas, though.

Cool wish I could understand it better. I wanted 12/1 but 92 only available.
