96 Suburban Engine

[jamz]

It has the 5.7L gasoline engine .. 204,000 miles .. curious if anyone has experience on the longevity of these engines and what I might expect? I want to see 300,000 with no major issues. This is a used Suburban I'm picking up, only 2 owners, and I have maintenance records.

Ive seen 300,000 once. I see 200,000 all day everyday.

Dime a dozen on that motor. If you want it for sentimental reasons, (for keeps) go for it.

If not, dont bother.

Yea I am looking to buy the entire truck for $1,600 .. I figured that was a good deal. I just was concerned cause it was high mileage but my Silverado is over 200,000 with no issues ..
