Mine does just fine without a super charger does it have the silver ground effects too?

Why is that a downer? I bought mine with 148k on it and now im up to 153k and everyone who looks at it says the engine is just awesome and still running great.

I dont have a supercharger but thought about putting in a supercharger or a turbro charger but was told with that many miles to rebuild the engine or get a new one before you put it in.

I don't see why it would be a problem if the engine runs strong. Bad example but kids boost 200k mile hondas with no trouble haha

Its Reds' s twin!!! I just reached 123123 miles this morning! You can probably bet its in good condition if it was babied that way. Where are you at? Someone's selling a rebuilt one with 119k here for 4700. So your getting a good price.

There's a lot of aftermarket for the 3800 engine. You may end up wanting to drive your monte on only good days. A lot of people do. Coolant elbows will probably be the first thing you replace.

I drove it real hard on the test drive and didn't notice any issues. So I think this is a deal.
