How much boost can the stock OEM block take before it gives??? Not the pistons, rods or crank but the block itself.

If our blocks are similar to the previous 2V generation, I'd say 600 HP at the crank....well, I think that's what I read in Hyland's book.

I have also seen 900 or 1000fwhp stated other places. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif[/img] I'm not sure anyone really knows exactly. All of the high horsepower failures I have read about were not the block... they were rods/pistons.
