Re: how many miles are on your 4.3?
150,523 as I pulled up to the house today. Needs new valve seals pretty soon, and I think the rear main is starting to go, but other than that, she's a champ.

Re: how many miles are on your 4.3?
I just bought a 98 Blazer LT 4x4 (W) 140k miles, they hadn't changed the oil since 2004.
spun 2 crank bearings. took the block into machine shop align bored crank mains and cam mains turned crank .020" and bored block .030" over, new pistons and rings, main bearings, rod bearings and cam bearings. heads milled .020", new valves, 3 angle valve seats, new springs. In other words starting over with a fresh block, This is better then new! |

Re: how many miles are on your 4.3?
Ive got 125K on my 96. With the exception of having to replace a freeze plug a few miles back, it runs like new. I wish I could say the same thing about the 4L60E thats behind it.

Re: how many miles are on your 4.3?
92 226,000 just swapped to a 93 auto transmission, lost 3rd gear, but other than that runs strong just not a lot of power need to either rebuild or upgrade to a 454 or 6.5 turbo diesel.

Re: how many miles are on your 4.3?
173,xxx. 2001 Blazer Xtreme. About 5,000 miles ago, she got new fuel injectors, polished up the valves, new water pump, new thermostat, cleaned up the lower intake mani a lil bit, and threw new gaskets in there, but the rest of the motor is all original.

Re: how many miles are on your 4.3?
I am new here, and pushing 290K. I noticed today that I have a leak somewhere, cause I have oil on the bottom of the trans. I knew before I had a front seal leak, but it was ever bad, but now this has me a little worried since it had used a little oil lately. BUT, I don't see any leaks in the driveway, that has me baffled.
Other than that, nothing major at all. Water pump, alternator at most. JJ |

169,000 on my 91 4.3 tbi blazer we've been together senice 01 and had some good times. Just changed the intake gasket and she runs better than ever. Trany pan is leaking but all in all I don't see any reason she won't make it well into the 200's.
