Default Lycoming crankshafts

My '91 Honda Prelude had 123,000 miles on it when I sold it. The owner
called and reported that it had crossed 125,000 miles and still going
strong. Only major work was a transmission overhaul, and the usual
maintenance items required, alternator, tires, etc. My current '97
Toyota Camry has 187,000 miles. No major maintenance issues. My American
cars never got that good of service..
