Try a million miles bud. The 350 and 5.0 are definitely the best smallblocks ever built. Try appreciating both, its not hard.

What I'm thinking is, how do they know it really is at 700,000? After all, the odometer doesnt pass 100,000. Just taking her work for it?

This women lives like 5 mins from me. The car does have that many mile, they use all her inspection sticker papers for evidence. That thing is a POS but it still runs. I worked at NAPA during HS and she would come in all the time buying stuff for that thing
