I posed the same concerns a few months back before I set out on my 2200 mile adventure.
That trip included my first day of 950 miles, 16 hours straight in 90 degree temps. 12 hours with top down. Don' forget sunscreen, I did
I just keep an eye on the Temp to make sure it stayed steady and that my MPG stayed steady
On the way home, I spent 1 day, 10 hours straight hiking up and down the Blue Ridge Parkway and I was pushing it.
Boxster gave me a worry free trip. These things really do run
You have done a lot more preventative replacements then I did. I had the basics, oil, plugs and belt and I started at 68000 mile on the odometer. I did take a new AOS with me and tools, even an extra jack. It gave me something to think about those long hours. How would I replace this thing on an engine that was as hot as the Sun?
Fortunately never needed to do anything
Enjoy, you will get bitten to do it again, I know I am
