you need to put up a bunch more info, and possibly even pics, if you want an answer to this. there are cars on here with 300K+ miles so it could be the stock engine. more info needed sir

different "tops" ???
according to the little "top" chart you have at least the same year engine....there is also a chance that if it feels really good it was rebuilt...otherwise as traintech said theres some 300+ motors still hauling A$$
