Nice project Dan,
What was the resistance per phase for star configuration for this machine.  Putting out 40-100 amps must mean a fairly low resistance was achieved.

Nice workshop

I figure it must be around .2 ohm (maybe a bit more).  So at 1000W the stator should be about a 400W heater.  At 1500W output it should dissipate between 700 - 1000W I suppose.  I think it's safe for 1500W sustained output at any rate.  Time will tell how well and when it furls.
