If I can just turn the car on while its lifted, let it warm up, and then cool it down to retorque everything.
For reference, I had UEL Gruppe S for 3 years and put my stock headers back in for smog, and now I'm going to go back on with the UEL gruppe S. Do I even need to worry about heat cycles on a used headers?

It's just best practice to drive about for a week, maybe mix in some spirited driving, then go back and double check.
I did that back when I still had my car and the cnt uel and didn't notice anything out of spec with my torque wrench.
If you have a tuner or datalogging tools look for LTFTs being +/- 10, if they are higher than that you most likely have a leak.
