Mine went 60,000km main concern is 2nd gear do not shift rapidely at 6000rpm plus, the shifter throw is too long and the 2nd gear wont fully engage and strip the engagement dogs. Other than this since the introduction of the sg oil rating the engines no longer wear out so change it often: 3000 miles be easy on it and it will last very long, Mine is still running somewhere around St-Agathe QC.
