I do believe I've seen a whole lot more chebbies blown up with less then 100,000 then I have with 200,000 and still running. Guess we must look at different engines!!!!! Just pulled one of them it'll run forever small blocks out of a '57, car has less then 100,000 on it and was overhauled about 30,000 ago.....

The new engines with EFI and electronic spark are much more likely to hit the 200,000 mile mark then the old one's with carbs and points.....
