My rings were done at 72k miles, so i got them, comp rings, valve seals, head gasket (naturally) and every other gasket and o ring in the head and block done at the same time. The valve seals were actually ok, even tho i thought originally this was the reason for my high oil consumption problem.

Depends on how well the car is taking care of. I'm sure there are GSRs with 150k+ miles with the stock headgasket, valveseals, and rings.

until they leak.
(Duh) Aside from the obvious please...To the people actually contributing useful information, I appreciate your responses. When the engine is somewhat cold, I'm noticing some slight white smoke at idle. I was just wondering which one could possibly be, since the car has 120,000 miles on it. On the other hand, I had a CTR intake cam dropped in an haven't had the car tuned.
