[QUOTE="KillNThrill24, post: 1245836, member: 16906"] Shoot for 200k man you've got a long year ahead of you!! But I know how you feel lol I always feel like I ask too many questions and never answer any. It's a great feeling! I'm 21 and still have to somewhat get my parents on board with my ideas lol.. Guess you're never too old for the parents to ***** about what you do with your money. So I showed my mom that post and she acted like it made sense to her, when really I know it didn't lol. My old man is gonna be like "fine do whatever the **** you want. Don't come crying to me when you blow it up" haha but whatever he'll get in the driver seat and the attitude will go away. As for your exhaust leak.... Those suck. Where's it at? No kidding. I have to admit these modular motors seem to be very durable little engines. My 3400 GM V6 is the same way. Replaced the gaskets on it and drained the dexcool and here it is at 193k and still running strong. Not boosted but you can just tell it's a tough engine. Same thing with my mustang. I've accidentally run it way beyond redline because of forgetting to turn on rev limiter (and not paying attention at the same time) and all it did was say "hey asshole.. that's enough" and kept on going. I've blown half the car apart, but not the engine. Guess I should knock on wood too lol You know it's funny I read on another forum something about older taxi's literally having almost 500k on them. Apparently the mod design is just incredible. Granite my miles are probably just a tad harder than taxis (tho not all taxis I realize..) but still. Good to hear that. My lower end will either be replaced or rebuild long before 280k lol but definitely good to know Another solid vouch for the durability of the modular... That F150 was badass btw man.
