We put a motor in an 85 GSL that had 189K on the clock...motor popped around 188ish...



Come on, nobody getting 250K on their original rotary?



I'd like to see some FD guys comment on this,lol... most FDs go out around 75K ...i see a few for sale w/ 110K+ but most at the mileage have a replaced engine. There was an FD in NJ for sale w/ 230K on it and it was only on it's second engine..I thought that was pretty good.

 

I had 249,9XX on my 88 GXL, Ran fine blew a lot of smoke the last 10K. Drove to work one day, went to start and CLUNK! No more APEX. I miss my stock car

 

i have 284,000 on a 91 suburban, stock 350 (never replaced, nothing) and the stock auto trans w/ OD (again stock, never replaced, rebuilt etc)



and it starts right up everytime and i just recently picked up and towed my n/a from a total of about 12 hours of straight driving...didnt even hiccup once.
