My guess would be no sludge at 12.5K, probably even if it were still the factory fill (hopefully isn't though).
But it is a good idea to check the head torque.
And like I said, who knows what the cause of the original failure actually was? It possibly was due to more than one issue. Bad gas, right atmospheric conditions, fuel pump failure, partially clogged injector, slightly undersized off-sized injector flow rate...there's no doubt that stage3 software will work an engine harder and take it closer to the bleeding edge.
I was just telling you what I would do to lessen the chances of another major problem. :) To be safer, get some idea what kind of duty cyle the injectors are running-at during WOT and what your AF's look like during varying driving conditions, different altitudes, temps, humidity, etc. It might also be worthwhile to quietly and gently contact the original tuner to see if there have been any revisions to the software that include less advance, boost, etc.
