Well, from what I have read, you should seriously think about getting a upgraded fuel pump before you go anywhere over 150 shot.

Ive seen a guy run 200hp for over 2 years, he usually ran a little race gas to help with octane and STOCK maf. The only reason it finally popped is he hit the button too early on a stock convertor and it bogged and popped.

BUT I wouldn't go over 150hp on a sigle nozzle.

I was told that a stock LS1 will buckle the rods at around 720hp. This came from a person who took a stock LS1 to the point of destruction on an engine dyno. I was not there to witness this event so I have no idea of what the fuel or timing was at. I guess when they found the limit it was quite brutal. I would imagine the the number of miles on the engine would be a factor also. Based on the source of the info, I believe it to be fairly accurate. Just my .02 worth.
