Stock vs Modified
My bone stock 1998 4.3 S-10 broke a crankshaft in half at 76,000 miles, and then blew a head gasket on a stock replacement motor 30,000 miles after that.
While my modified (turbocharged) Honda breaks something almost every time I take it out.
So I guess nothing is reliable....
Hopefully this 2008 Civic Hybrid I just bought has better luck.
