Default How Many Miles Before Engine Rebuilt?

I know that's a tough question but I wanted to see how many miles you guys got out of your stock engine before you needed a rebuilt.

Mine needed a rebuild shortly after I got it (2k miles)...It didn't have enough power...and I went to MoTeC EFI in 96 with 39k on the engine.

In my experience of selling these things for 19 years now I'd have to say a minimum of 100,000 kms is the lowest figure.....and FWIW......I have seen one car go 345,000 kms. Assuming the owner follows the prescribed maintenance routine.
