I had a '63 Valiant with a 170 /6.  No idea how meny miles it had,
since the odometer was broke when I bought it.  About 8 years ago, I
had to get a valve job done on it, so it lasted at least 33 years,
most of them on unleaded.  A leakdown test showed that exhaust
valves weren't sealing properly.  After new valves, guides and
seats, the motor was back to normal, at least until I sold it to my
brother.
