Being a auto, you should last longer then a M6 guy, general rule of thumb, if your cracking 1.6X 60 foots, I would be worried my LT1 383 with a 10 bolt lived fine on 1.7's but eventually started get gear whine, which as around 108k on it

My stock 10 bolt is still alive and super quiet. 99K miles on it and have beat it up quite a bit.
