When I first started working for Chevy, a 50,000-mile outfit was, for all intents and purposes, nearing the end of it's run.

Computer controlled (perfect ratio) fuel delivery, electronic (precise) ignition systems and the addition of the overdriven transmissions (slower/fewer engine revs) automatically pushed the normal 'lifetime' miles to upwards of 300K.

When I was a boy, we normally set the cold fast idle speed to 1800 rpm to insure a good cold start. Heck, ya don’t even see the darned things hit 1600 running down the hi-way nowadays. :>)
