    There is a guy on SVTperformance.com that has a Terminator with something like 265,000 miles on it and that was a couple years ago when I frequented that site more. I would ask if it had been overheated though because of the head cooling mod and new radiator. If I remember right the back two cylinders can run hotter with the factory setup and the head cooling mod fixes that (don't remember the exact issue).

    He is currently well over 400,000.

    Depends on which casting heads are on this car but the early heads got hot at the rear of the driver side head. According to the mod list posted above though this car already has a head cooling mod so it's probably a non issue.

    Holy shit, he piles on the miles. My mind was just wondering if the cooling mod was done as a pre-cautionary maintenance thing or a reactive maintenance because it got hot and then installed.

    It's a known problem so most people do it as a precaution.
