Our 93 sc400 is at 176,000, original engine, not a drop of oil on floor. Can't send photo of mileage as cluster out to LLS. Just have to get heater working before fall! It was stated that every sc400 not wrecked is still running?!?

Take GOOD care of it and most of you guys should be fine.

Change fluids before the recommended intervals.
Use correct fluids such as the factory coolant and transmission oil.
Use synthetic oil
Use OEM parts for critical things that cannot easily be replaced
Replace stuff when given the chance rather than wait til failure ie valve cover seals, water pump, etc

Don't be cheap. Maintenance before Mods.

I am at 197k

Certainly not Ford.

My clock is reading about the same amount of mileage as your clock. I feel it can go way longer. But soon enough I'll have to say goodbye to the GE and replace it with a GTE. I love my SC.
