I had an '85 Delta 88 with that 307 Olds engine.  That was one of the smoothest running engines I have ever owned (my '04 Silverado 5.3 with 260K on it is the other).  'Swiss watch' smooth -- not big on power, but a good runner.  Had to replace the intake manifold gasket due to a coolant leak.  That was the only issue I had.

What year silverado has 500k?

I have 3 Reattas. One with 304,000, one with 278,000, and the 'vert has 135,000 miles. Just "sold" a '89 to a forum buddy with 310,000. Like Ship says "You can't kill a 3800".

I own a 84 Buick Lesabre custom given to my father new in 1984. It has overheated twice, once boiling for over 30 minutes. Mainly I've driven and stored it outside in a Minnesota climate. I have rebuilt the transmission and replaced the timing chain twice. I have never done engine  or carborator work. It has medium rust damage needing a driver's floor feetrest repair once. It's 5 L Olds gas engine does not use a drop of oil. It has well over 250,000 miles. Now it is enjoying semi-retirement in an insulated garage, stored with gas stabiliser in the gas tank and carborator when I am doing missionary work in Africa which is most of the time. It has vintage plates. I've noticed no major or engin problems with city or highway driving. Posted July 27th, 2022. If you have any suggestions or opinions contact me at adamsayles at gmail dot com.
