I'd start low and work your way up if you feel the need.. always smart to test with low shots anyways

like he said start low and work up. if the motor has not been abused and has been maintained regularly then you shouldn't have much to worry about. if you can check the a/f ratio and watch the fuel pressure.

These are easly 150/200k motors if taken care of. If you think it's been abused you can do a cylinder leak down test and that will tell the story on condition of motor. Other than that, follow advice above.
