I'm running stock cooling on my 1700+, and it's good enough to run at 166mhz FSB but because I'm burning in my Vcore is higher then it should be. I'm burning in because it's not perfectly stable at 166. I estimate at 166mhz FSB my CPU temp will be 55-60*C, but I only need the Vcore to be set so high for a couple days. Is it ok for such a short while?

Nope, i dont think that safe at all. Beside based on the burn in theory, burn in only works if you can keep the cpu cool.
SO i would say find a better way to cool it then burn it in.
MameXP,
Ps. just for reference overclocked cpus run at higher 50c can really short their lifes faster.
