And likewise, there are thousands of Ford and GM motors turning over 1 million heavy-duty miles on the odometer every single day, serving in police cars, work trucks, and taxi cabs, amongst others. The whole superiority argument is a moot point at best.




i saw on tv once this dude who has some sort of hotrod with an original corvette 427 (iirc) in it. It has like half a million miles or something. Said he only has to tighten down the lifters every so often.
