2000hrs. We put 1800 on a late 80s 350. It ran great right up until the yard didnt winterize it and the block cracked.

as long as it is together and running, fine. once it is time to spend 1500 boring, decking and replacing or rebuilding the rotating assy, it is not IMO sensible to reuse a raw water small block.
