The last engine in my car had 50 miles on it before I set out on the power tour in 2014, as did the whole car from a frame off restoration. About 50 miles further, the camshaft decided to shred itself apart, I drove it another 800+ miles on 5-6 cylinders.

So my highly scientific answer is, test it further than 50 miles..
