Yea you can definetly keep your mouth shut but I wouldnt install it for a while. Wait because you dont want them calling you up in a few weeks telling you to send it back after its already installed into your car.

The only thing is.... you dont know what the specs of it are now. Do you know what kind of pistons, crank, etc. etc. etc.
