I got my '91 at 49,000 miles. I took the engine out at 197K miles only because I had another 3.0 that made more torque. Oil pressure was fine and no knocks anywhere.
I change my Mobil-1 every 5,000 miles.
First, have someone put a guage on your Oil Pressure Sensor hole. If your pressure is good when hot, don't worry about your bearings. If not, then make Rod AND Main bearings as part of your list. You really don't want to go back in a second time in the next 100K miles...
Next, make sure you do the '60K (100K on an auto [ATX]). That will run you some $$, but if done right (Check FPS' and SHOSHOP's list of what they would do) the car will run MUCH better, get better mileage, and a bit stronger.
After that, have fun!
