God no. I've ran 180,000+ motors and only blown them up because I was learning to tune. I'll drop a 200,000 motor in my car next. Boost helps the rings seat better anyway!

Nope a lot of people run high milaige 5.3s with boost
The spare motor I have has 180k and I plan to run it just replace ,rodbolts,gaskets,and if you weren't already gonna do it a new oil pump is a good thing to do
