Never saw a small block chevy go a million miles, so the 4.7L Toyota v8 is much better. The Ford straight six 4.9L 300 with fuel injection is a close second, however it does not make a ton of power. The slant six dodge/Chrysler engine was damn bullet proof as well. Toyota 22RE is also known for excellent reliability. No, the small block chevy doesn't make the list as far as I'm concerned. Even though I've rebuilt a few of them...
