Default belt replacement?

How many miles can the LS1 have before the belt should need replacing... I just hit 60k miles on my LS1, belt looks fine... no cracks... should I replace it.... hard install?

its not hard to do at all...
if it doesnt have cracks I wouldnt mess with it

Just have to take a wrench and move the belt tensioner with a 15mm wrench to get the belt loose
