All depends on the overall condition of your engine I’d say up to 450bhp if all’s fine,, some run up to 500bhp but it’s just a matter of time before it go’s pop...
I’d go for about 420bhp to keep it safe...

Plenty folk ran over 400,

I personally would keep it at the low 4's

With good maintenance and sum mechanical sympathy you shouldn't have any issues

Cheers boys Antony from indigo gt said we should get 400 for the set up just wanted to make sure I was not maxing it out. Hopefully do a 2.1 stroker build in 2 years now the wedding paid off haha.
