general is an unknown quantity at this point
Welcome to Skymaster ownership. I was very fortunate to own an aircraft which was built just a few numbers ahead of yours N63S. I've had several skymasters with STOL kits. You won't even know the kit is on the airplane unless you get below the power curve on landing and you'll see how incredible of an advantage they can be. Normally just fly it by the numbers. Practice slow flight and stalls and you'll see how the S T O L kit performs. Most of the time the stall warning is set up as a standard stall speed for a non converted aircraft. You will notice that the aircraft will not go into a full stall probably 10 mph or more after the warning goes off. Practicing slow flight will give you confidence. Realizing that most of your flying you do will just be by the Normal book Numbers but should you need to get in a short field you will have some idea on how it performs. Another thing that's routinely done on take off is to add some flaps through the take-off run and you'll see how fast the airplane will want to take to the air. Don't do anything radical until you have some instruction with someone who is proficient with S T O L operations.
You're going to have fun with that aircraft congratulations
