As long as you get a good piston (Diamond or Wiseco) and the steel top ring set for nitrous use, it should handle 250hp of nitrous without issues. The hard part about giving HP ratings to parts is that user error (namely fuel supply and tuning) can greatly reduce the longevity of the engine. But if you tune it right and give enough of the right fuel it should be perfect!

We've had several customers push the Eagle H-beams with ARP2000 bolts and Diamond off the shelf pistons to 1000+rwhp without any issues! The GM crankshafts are also known to be pretty tough pieces!

As for 7K+ RPM, the short-block will handle it as long as the heads/cam are able to breath that high and you have good valve train control!
