Ive done a few 700ish mile trips no issues. If its made to hold up to hard launces and shifts im sure cruising down the highway will be no problem.

I've been on a couple hot rod Power Tours in my car with an FLT level 4 and vig 3600 with an aux trans cooler and fan. each was around 3000 miles in a week with no problems at all. that is everything from beating on it, high speed, sitting in stop and go traffic, all in the 90+ deg heat too. so I'm sure you will be fine.
