Actually, I put 240K on one of those, they are bulletproof, at 120K I changed out the timing chains with a decent aftermarket set, at 100k I changed plugs and wires (although I don't think your has wires, mine was a 97) along with the fuel filter. at 230K I changed the timing chain set, but really didn't need to since I bought a decent set to begin with and the plugs and wires again. Somewhere along 180k I changed an alternator and starter.
The only issue I ever had with it was that it would warp the rotors about every 6 months, (I did a lot of race trailer towing) so use the factory, or decent aftermarket rotors, they are thicker.
Just use decent fuel, I also added some Lucas additive to the oil every change after 75K and used Valvoline high mileage oil
That was it, I finally traded it in last year, it was a sad day
