From what I have read and experienced, the sbc (carbed and hei) has gone from lasting around 100,000 miles to lasting around 225,000 (efi and pc controlled ignition) over the years.
Do you think that the main difference was the switch to efi - the motors no longer run way to rich or lean when the weather changes?
Or was it the introduction of knock sensors - the ignition can account for weak gas (etc) without detonation?
Maybe there is something else that I am missing?
