Default Re: Engine Longevity

An old engine builder told me that engine metallurgy has not changed much in a hundred years. The reason modern engines often go 200,000 plus miles is dramatic improvements in oil and gas additives. Probably some truth to this and good news for the Model A community. What we need now is beer additives so we can enjoy our rides even longer.
