He is suggesting that you change NOW at 120K, since it is reccommended that the V-8's have a timing chain replacement at 100K. Remember, this chain is long, very long at 198 links. Good time to check out the upper chain rails too.

Now a question for future reference: Is it possible to replace the upper chain rails without having to pull the front cover?
