Usually hold up well outside of normal block cavation @ liners,this prob i have a local machinist bore and sleeve @ $125 a hole,lately good used blocks are hard to come by.

i bought a 450 cheap over 8 years ago. barley ran. cleaned up nearly 1 1/2 miles of proptery line with it. cleared back acres of brush an pines. repaired a dam. it let go of connecting rod on #3 and spit the rod out near the fuel filter bracket. that stopped it. i cant tell you how many hours i put on it. boocoo though. i'll get that hole patched somewheres, sometime. 188's are very good engines in my book.
