Timing Chain Intervals????? HELP?!!

Hey there Saab owners...
I've been looking for information regarding the proper interval for timing chain replacement on a 1986 & 1991 Saab 900 (with 157K and 152K). Both 900s have the 16-valve engine (2.0L & 2.1L respectively) and 5-speed transmissions. Both cars had their timing chains replaced between 95K and 100K, but I'm not sure if it should be done sooner than 90-100K. I've checked both the Bentley and Haynes manuals and can't seem to find the Saab recommended replacement schedules. Does anyone know if I should be concerned with timing chain replacement within the next 15-30K? Maybe I'm just tired or I'm going blind and can't find the information. Help?!
Thank you, in advance.
Sincerely,
Blaine
