If its been serviced regular you have no problems

But if your in doubt get lower mileage engine...

Well tbh mate for 230k it drives sweet no ratlles or engine tapping or anythin runs sweet I got in it and I was suprised that it has done that many miles , but if I was to drop camsect in it would it put more strain on the engine ,?

I had this exact dilemma a month ago.

I decided on a newer engine. then keep the odl one. if the new one goes bang i can always use the old one!
