Let us know if anything happens with it, otherwise enjoy it... as long as the problem is gone and there are no other symptoms, I dont see how there could be an issue with driving the car
S54 engines have solid lifters not hydraulic ones. A stuck valve would not go away.... There would be other issues to resolve then.
