7.3 miles

My 01 7.3 has 118k miles. How many miles can you get out of these motors if they are taken care of on average?

On average hard to say, but lots of them running over 2-3-4 500,000. Of course you will be replacing injectors turbos alternators waterpumps etc etc. but the block will still be ticking

Over 450K on mine and I have only done the usual, 1 water pump, 1 alt., etc.
As long as they have good maintenance they will last forever!

Oh and I have had exhaust, intake, a chip/tuner, and gauges on mine since 50K

1 intake
2 exhaust
3 gauges
4 tuner
tuner should always be last in this order.. but others can be shuffled..
in this order it will keep exhaust temps down..
these mods are all easy to do, the filters a snap.. easy warmup mod..
