Default How many miles do you have on your built motor?

I was wondering about reliability of high hp motors. I was gonna build my gsr and get around 300whp.

Dont bother building those motors can take up to around 300 whp before things start breaking. Soo...as long as you stay around there your good. Get a compression and leakdown check before you do it to make sure..

my built b16 never blew up. 50k + on it.

ls/vtec made it to 18k @ 400whp. but we're pretty sure it ate a piece of the spark plug, causing its failure.

ls/vtec #2 @ 592 whp been holding up great so far ... got about 8k on it maybe???? not sure really
