My first crate motor was run for 3 seasons before it came out. I would say at least 500 to 600 passes, probably more.
I bought a motor from Larry Cummings. H&F built it originally, then it was freshened by Huntsville engines when I bought it from Larry. We put over 600 passes on it 1/4 and 1/8th. I think I got my moneys worth out of it.
My last couple of motors did'nt fare that well but we had a couple of weird things happen. Stocker motor broke a rod and H/R motor block cracked.

My new car has about 60 passes on it now and we are planning on running it next year if I don't sell car.
