Default HP rating on stock LS1 Rods and Crankshaft?
Im about to start a mild ls1 build and was wondering how much power can the stock rods and crankshaft usually take?

The stock crank is plenty stout, 800 would be no problem. I wouldn't want to push the rods much farther than 650. At least upgrade the stock rod bolts to ARP or Katech.
