Post Couple questions

Hey guys got a couple questions for you.

I own a 92 Corvette, but my brother is currently looking into getting a 89-92 Trans Am. I know a little bit about the L98 engine but not much about F-bodys. How many miles do the L98's usually last before needing to be rebuilt? And what other problems should we keep a look out for in these years?

Well, I know guys who have L98's with over 100,000 that are still running strong, it just depends a lot on how well they were taken care of. What is your brother looking for in a third gen?
