Re: how much abuse can one motor take
Go get a lotto ticket, you're lucky so far.
I had a 350 way back when I was young and first started tinkering that I put a cam in and proceeded to beat the $hit out of for about a year. It had hairline cracks all over the crank's rod journals and never let go on me. An 'old-timer' advised me that it would blow up in short order when he saw the crank, I'm surprised it didn't.
I should have bought a lotto ticket then...
