My 1.3 engine was on about 120000 when I swapped it for the 1.6 and it was still running sweet before I took it out.
86 SJ413 tin top, 1.6 8v, SU carb, YJ spring conversion, virtual lift, 33x12.5x15 KL71's, rocklobster, rear discs, power steering.
Re: longlevity ????
Okay thanks for the info, thats a really nice looking 413 anus.....
I guess its the treatment the engine gets in its life....i never let it slog in a gear..not too happy about the wife driving it though since her Escort mk2 is off the road..

Mines on 115k now.
Been a geeat little engine. Service regularly. Drive daily
Ragged occasionally to clear its throat.
A good blast evey so often getting the revs up helps alot on older cars.
