Unless you are wanting to build for big power I would bolt some power on it and go. My oil analyses came back good. with about 235,000 at the time I took the sample. currently about 245,000...

Working on finding out...lol I think I have the highest mileage 370 though in the world at this point...so 245k at least? It still runs strong and has no problems with the engine.
