That's for ANY car... It's not like porperly built LS/VTECs can't take a beating and other B-series engines can.

Any built motor is only as strong and reliable as the parts and mechanic behind it all. Don't try to rev it through the roof and be decently nice on a daily basis and you should be fine for a long time. Just my opinion though.
