Safe RWHP on a stock block?

[Erik B]

Did a search but didnt really come acorss any numbers. Im not worried about the "how much boost can I run" but more on how much power a stock motor can handle safely.

Erik B: who feels like such a freaking newbie :redface:

I think the consensus is 400 rwhp reliably. There are people running more on stock engines but 400rwp seems the conservative upper limit.

thank you

I agree with that; with a good tune 400 whp should be fine. I would probably run 425-450 whp or so on my own stock motor, but would be hesitant to recommend over 400whp to someone else. : )
