Find someone who knows how to pour babbit.

Properly done babbitt will last at least 60,000 miles or more.
I agree, we have a 29 that has never been rebuilt, has 70,000 mile on it. Good compression, all in 60's. Does not use oil or make any funny sounds. Runs great. Has had valve job. These are great little engines. Just change oil, do not lug, and keep well tuned.
