Cooking the pads will give you no braking effect (fade), but the pedal will stay up. Boiling the fluid will drop the pedal, but pumping will restore braking effect.
Routing air into and out of the rotor (via the internal vanes) helps disipate the heat that transfers from the rotor/pad interface into the caliper and boils the fluid.
New seals, wilwood 550 or the new 600 should suffice if you do some basic air ducting, and save a few bucks in the process. Not familiar with the Castrol high $ fluid, but am sure it brings it's own problems to the party, such as corrosivness to the system etc.
Of course, you could always just tighten the belts, dump some ice in your pants and go for it...
