Well I have had 2 high mileage Chevys so far, and still have a big block ford in my 84 f250 and I'll stand by those engines anyday. my first car had 200k+ miles on it when I got it and had been trashed by the previous owner, I drove it for a year and trashed the hell out of it, never changed the oil and always drove around like a 16 year old kid with a v8. That engine is still in the car and if I had'nt used it for a parts car then that high output 305 would still be running strong today.
Same with the 460 in my ford, I'll talk shit about fords all day but when it comes down to it that truck will start up any day of the week and still run strong with a spun bearing due to somebody running it too long 3 quarts low, one easy fix.
only shitty thing about V8s is how much they use gas... but
