T2 Engine Longevity
I might be purchasing a t2 with 120,000 miles on it. Supposing that it was properly maintained how long do you think before she gives out? Is there anything I can do to lengthen the life span of the engine? I know that these have been asked before, but I didnt find much when I searched. Thanks

i have a friend who has over 190,000miles on his 1987 turbo 2 on the original engine. of course mine is on at least #3 at 160,000. your mileage may vary

you can do reliability mods that will extend engine life such as radiator etc

Mine= 150k.

mines on 140k and change, turbo needs to be replaced within the next year id say since shes blows a lil smoke if ideled for a long time(5-10min) but hey, thats what e-bay is for

Big power (over 300hp) should last 100k miles.  Stock power motors should run to 150k miles easily.  The stock apex seals get really thin at 100k miles, so it's recommended to do proper rebuilds if going for more power.
