Default Forged 402 - Okay for a big shot?

Its a forged 402 from TSP.

Upgraded ARP2000 rod bolts
ARP head studs
cometic gaskets

How are the rings? They are TSP's exclusive Total Seal Ring set.
4.010"+.005", 1.5mm Plasma Moly Top, 1.5mm Napier 2nd, 3mm Oil.

Max I would probably ever spray is a 250 shot. Could the motor handle that? What is the limit?

You'll need to upgrade your fuel system for a shot that big.

AS stated above as long as you have enough fueling to cover that amount of shot you should be able to spray the car without a poblem.

A typical off the shelf non nitrous forged piston should handle up to around a 250hp shot.
