How can I tell..........
I have an 86 Gxl and my car has 193k on the motor. It pulls very hard, very smooth through out the power band, no complains at all. My question is there any way of telling if the motor was rebuilt? On the front cover I see some writing in black marker. I just can't believe what good condition the motor is in
