Default RHS 427 Block limits FI

Anyone know what the limit is for boosted applications on the RHS427 block.

And what are people running?
what psi have people blown them up at?

Any other issues with the block you are aware of?


I am planning on building a large boost motor to make about 1000HP at the wheels.

The RHS would be fine for 1000WHP.

I personally would run a Dart LS Next Aluminum, ERL Block, or a CPP LSX. A RED Sleeved LS Next would be bullet proof for less than a Billet Block.
