Does the odometer keep recording miles or does it start all over?
example: if its rebuilt at 200k miles will it read 210k miles or 10k miles after adding 10k miles to the engine?
sorry but Im clueless

No, your odometer doesn't know about the rebuild. It will continue just as it is.

Your odometer only records miles driven on the car itself and has nothing to do with the engine. The only true gage of the health of a vehicle would be to do like they do with aircraft and have an hour meter attached to the engine. To further answer your question, if you put a new or rebuilt engine in a car with 300,000 miles, you would have a car with 300,000 miles.

The odometer will register the total mileage of the automobile. When you have the engine rebuilt, make a note of the mileage on the odometer. Then you will know the mileage on the engine since the rebuild.
good luck

Your odometer will keep going on. You are not ever allowed to reset the odometer, even if you bought a new engine.

unless there`s something new it just reads 210k and i think its illegal to change the mileage.
