How long has your 200whp+ all motor beast lasted you?
Just thought i would put together a list of people's set up and how long they have lasted without any major problems or rebuilds because I always see questions on relaibilty and longevity. So post up what you got a how long it was been running strong. Please no "leave it stock post". Just trying to help people out.

About 25k miles so far with lots of track time, autoX, and general "spirited" driving, and no problems. My only concerns for potential failure on this setup are the Ti retainers wearing thin, and I've heard of problems with crower 63422 cams here on H-T (but most of those seem to be installation related). Setup for this engine is stock H22 + eagle rods, type S pistons, springs/retainers/cams, and boltons.

Over 15k on mine, all thats been replaced is a few sets of valves and I just swapped out rod bearings when we did the last set of valves since I notice a spec of derbris on one.. The bearings that were pulled were still fine however.. I'm just ****.. Mine has over 350 dyno pulls on it too.
mine had over 15k miles on it when i sold it.

90K miles out of my brother in law's B18
The motor was in 2 of his EKs, and recently his EG. He drove it 365 days a year to and from work, even in the dead of the winter and through the snow. This was a car that we used to travel in to watch races; we drove it all over the country. He took the EG to the track for the 1st time right before he sold the motor to see what it would put down and he ran 12.81 @ 108, full interior. With that MPH it easily had 12.50s in it. That was with 90K miles on it and nothing had ever been touched since the 1st assembly of the motor. Just general maintenance. He changed the timing belt once, adjusted the valve lash 2 times, and changed the oil every 5000.
The motor is still running in someone else's car. He wanted more displacement, so he switch to an H22. I bet the motor has 105K by now. When the guy saw it run at the track he offered cash on the spot.
