Canadian 3.0 1988, was at 330 I believe I did timing chain and head gasket. I believe it will go another 200k... it was so strong after the chain and gasket. cheers!

Almost 220,000 on mine. The top end was redone just before I bought it at 197,000.

I got it from the original owner in Phoenix with the intention of a 3.4 swap when the 3.0 craps out.

88 was the only year of the 3.0 in the 2nd gen body and has way more power than any 22RE I've ever driven...

I am getting ready to do a new exhaust with 2 1/4" tube, a new cat and Magnaflow muffler.

And keep driving it.

I bought my truck with 60,000 on the motor, HG blew at 113,000mi. Replaced that with another 3.0 which has about 110k on it now and is much much cleaner than the old one

My 1994 3.0 has 238,00....Head Gasket recall was done by Toyota in 1998 with 60,000.History Report original owner gave me shows during recall they put in new Oil pan, Engine Overhaul Gasket Kit, Short Block Assy. Well now it sits in driveway w/ Blown Head gasket at 230,000 guess it lasted 172,000 miles after VO6 S.S.C. (Recall) was done.

My pickup was on its 4th 3.0 when I bought it with 169k miles. My 4runner I just picked up is showing 173k and the 3.0 in it isn't original. No telling how many it's went through.
