i have a '90 carat parts van here that has over 450k on its original engine
with the original head gaskets.  the van is a complete POS, but thats got to be
some kind of a record. i got it from the original owner.. it was hit
(cosmetic damage) was never fixed and he kept driving it for years after that,
finally stopped driving it because the original manual tranny started to whine..

despite that, i still think waterboxer motors are junk.
