Has your engine been reliable ? I drive my 94 celi every day and always starts without fail 163k miles on it doesn't burn oil or smoke. How many miles can this engine run with proper care ?

I bought one with 200k on it and has had the head gasket replaced 50k ago, I replaced the oil pump, water pump, and all seals when I put it in. So it's had everything except pistons, rings, bearings.
It runs like a dream I plan to get at least another 100k out of it.
I also replace the oil when the oil on the dipstick starts looking dark, no matter how many miles. I run Rotella T6 synthetic.
