depends how good the machine work is, and if it was assembled correctly, and how good the tune is....
If all that is perfect or close to it then the head gaskets will let go around 1400-1500 Rwhp.

Just for reference a set of long tube headers make over 460 horse at the crank with ease on a LS3 (376ci).
