I'm not doubting you but why is it that every time I hear about any JDM swap no matter what motor it always has "around 40K miles"?

My best guess would be because most of the online stores that sell jdm swaps claim that the engines have between 30-40k miles on them. Whenever I think of purchasing a swap from some online store I just look at it like drawing straws, you may get a good motor, or you could get a ragged out 100k+ motor..who knows..Sick car though
