How many miles


Recommended Posts

well I have 100,000 on my 97 and the only things i have changed on it is tires, filters, oil and one alternator. everything still seems fine the lifters or a valve seem to be ticking a little louder as it gets older but i hear thats normal for a cold gm motor.

My family has had 5 350's go 250,000+ before we sold them, one went 320,000, 3 were per Vortec and 2 were Vortec engines. SO I bet you could see 200,000 miles plus. Only problems we have had are the exhaust manifold getting too hot and cooking the seal on a couple of them, common problem for 350's.

Mine is a 99 Sierra 4X4 with a 5.3 and I currently have 174,000 on and I'm getting between 15 and 17 MPG. I suppose that fuel mileage is one area wher GM has Ford beat. The comfort of the seats definatly goes to Ford though.

As far as the seats go, that is the only complaint about my 04, they made them narrower and the metal plates dig into my thighs after sitting awhile. I'm not a small guy but my blazer seats were comfy and my dads 00 seats are wider as well. The foam should be a bit denser if the seat is smaller than in the past :lurk:
