Run it for a good long time, then drain and finely strain the oil looking for any evidence of aluminum bits? If none... enjoy until something happens one day. None of these machines last forever, so we might as well enjoy 'em. I f this is a big thrill for you and it's done... what the hell! Enjoy.

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
