I'm shopping around for a B48 powered car, and there have been instances of stretched chains at like 180000km.

It's worse in B47, which carries over the same timing parts as N47 and it's generally acknowledged it's best to replace the chain at 120000km there.

6cyls seem to fare better, my guess is the pulling forces on the chain are spaced more evenly.
