150,000 on mine (but I've got the forged crank and Timken lefty bearing, yours doesn't) but I'd still trust it to see 100,000 before you split the cases and freshen it all up.

bought my first TC88 new. At 10,000 miles rear cam bearing went south. Dealer rebuilt motor, I sold it with 88,000 miles, nothing done to motor in between.
