Default Safe to shoot with my setup?

I was wondering if it would be safe to run a 100 or 150 shot with my setup? I know I have the internals for it but when I had my block machined I replaced all the bearings. I had him make the clearences on the bearings loose just a bit but close to stock. Also when I filed the Piston Rings I chose the street specs and not the high performance specs because it is my daily driver. So with all this in mind is it safe to shoot?

Just out of curiousity...what is your oil pressure like.

I think you should be able to spray just fine. Any doubts ask the builder or call JE on you PN piston and ask thier advice.

Oil pressure stays a little over 40psi while driving. A little higher when its cold.

Should be just fine. I'm shooting a 150 shot on a stock bottom end. Just make sure you have the fuel supply covered.
