It all depends on what parts you use. Stock crank will be fine for those power levels IMO. Id say if you look around really good you can get it done for 2250 to 2700. Depends on what you use.

You don't need anything special for under 500 rwhp.

For those kind of power levels it should be a pretty basic short block. I have a extra boost shortblock at the machine shop now, shoot me a IM & I'll get ya pricing
