Subject:ECU Chip, Rockers, Speeding the Death of an Engine?

Hello Volkses!

I'm contemplating the ECU chip and rocker upgrade, and was curious if anyone
knew what sort of stress it puts, if any, on the bottom end of the engine.
I've had the van three years, it said 87K then, still says 87K, but I've
been all over the country in it.  New heads, coolant hoses, various pumps,
etc. but I've never cracked the case on anything and wouldn't want to be
forcing that time any sooner if I can avoid it.  Ideas?
