116,000. The left head on mine went from weeping to real tears and no compression. Lucked out and got gasket sets for both sides for $54 shipped on ebay. Shop in Nebraska had a customer back out, and they were stuck with parts. No problems on the right side, but if the left goes well, we'll go for both while the intake manifold is off. Will probably take a few weeks to finish since son works most nights and i work days. Got a good start tonight, way fun.
