426 stroker, is it reliable?

Hi,
I was going to buy the 426 stroker from hughes, but I've seen opinions that the rings don't last long, maybe 10,000 mile. An that the 408 will only last 20,000 mile before needing new rings.
Does anyone have a long term experience with a 426 stroker motor that they could share?
I'm talking about a street motor, not a race motor.
Thanks.
