Sorry man. I forget that it isn't 1987 anymore.

It will just take longer at low volume, that's all. It's not a massive deal anyway, I'll bet they sound great from the off.
Just to help manage your expectations Mike they will sound pretty rubbish when you get them back, bass light, bit harsh nearly and undynamic. Mine have been in for a year and a half now after reconing and are sounding fantastic. I rewired them on Saturday and rotated the drivers 180 degrees to help even out wear on the suspensions when I was there. Took a photo of them to let you see the finished job from Lockwoods. I'd been in such a hurry to refit them I didn't take photos at the time :)

They look as good as mine. Which I did myself. And didn't need to run in, as they are the original cones.

Nice job Geoff!
