Subject: [VANAGON] Poll: How many miles on yours?

Volks,  I'm curious....  How many miles on your vans -specifically how many
miles on the existing engine (no rebuilds to exceed head
reseal/replacement).

I've got 185K miles on my van with the original block.  I'm on my third set
of heads and am now resealing the current heads after a cylinder o-ring
(whatchamacallit) failed (thankfully a machine shop found the heads to be
straight and crack free).  I had the tranny rebuilt at 125K miles.

I've been told by a few knowledgeable folks that 200K is about all I can
expect from the bottom end of the engine (rods, bearings, etc.)

What do you think... How  many miles on yours?
