    1-2 mine shifts from 7000-7200 according to my scan tool. It's funny during the shift the whole nose of the car lifts up then falls down and tugs to the right. Then again I think it has always done that... Also mine is minutely not stock either....

        I got ya beat. 152k on stock springs, no shims and every once in a while going to 7150 with no problems This is the 91 of course.[/quote]

        mine brothers car had 289k on it with no float but then he screwed his motor up. by the way he also spun a bearing in his motor is it worth rebuilding?

              Have a machine shop check out the block to make sure it is fine to bore and you should be good to go. The bearing areas for the crank might need work since a bearing spun, that would require oversize bearings, but that old block could very well be worth holding on to for a rebuild.

                I spun a bearing too. Block was fine, and I rebuilt it.

                  You had yours align bored didn't you (wise move)? That would have taken care of any scored surfaces from the bearing spinning where it wasn't meant to spin. Also the shop would have ordered oversized bearings if they needed them, since I doubt they would have added material to the surfaces to keep stock sized bearings.

                    Yes they were going to turn the crank, but I ended up replacing it becuz I drove the car too long with the spun bearing.
