Default LS7 con-rod bhp rating?

Hi,
At what point do the LS7 con-rods become a weakness?

The reason I ask is that we are building a 650bhp LS7 using high compression pistons, the stage 3 GM cam and possible head mods.

Will we need stronger con-rods?

Also what hp do you think we'll be at with just the high compression pistons
[13.0:1]and stage 3 cam?

Cheers
