Default 100 engine hours in!

The picture explains it all... Anyone else have any pics to compare.. Looks like I am doing to much Highway driving back and forth from Atlanta and Cincinnati..

8,610,000 revs at 6000 minutes =1495 and RPM...

Get beating on the car Brad!

I know reading some of these threads about engine blowing up and the sky is falling attitudes.. It's hard to believe I have 100 hours and no engine blown.. But no one keeps track of that information.. Just the bad they read..

Happy day all!!
