well i would say low to high 400's safely and over that you jepordize the rear end and will need a forged bottom end over 500rwhp.... numbers very on the track, high 11's to mid 12's???

I will say that 500rwhp is fairly easy and will hold a while on the stock bottom end if you have a good tune etc... It will do more, but you will have to work out a few issues with fuel systems. I would guess that I am in the mid 10's as I have never been back to the track since the time I went with the busted pistons and I was radials (Not Drag radials.) I ran a 11.61 I think and the MPH was 128 or 129(@460rwhp)so even on the lower power I had enough to get me into the 10's just a little info for you.
