    A pretty good bit. Its an ironblock. Dont quote me but I think it can handle up to 900hp on stock internals.

    I won't quote the guy above me but 900hp is waaaaaay off. Around 500-whp give or take.

    WTF?!?! 900hp?

    Stock internals have let go below 400rwhp on an LT1, and in fact do so fairly often with at those power levels with boost or nitrous. It is usually the pistons that let go.

    My 97 lt1 with lt4 convertion and a hot cam held up for 668 drag strip passes and burnouts. It was shifting auto @ 6250 rpm and now has 104000 miles on it. It runs great and dosnt use any oil. It was making about 405 FWHP.
