Maybe "on paper", but if you drive the thing properly, in the "real world" I
don't think you'll have any problems.  I've got a lot of hard track miles on
my 3.0L pump'd 3.2L.

IMHO No, but if you are the paranoid type, it's 4 hrs on your back and less
than $100 in parts.  So you can do it every 100k if you please :)
