It seems around 500 ft-lbs of torque is around the limit if you want reliability, and if you are adding power you wanna use it and not worry about breaking down. So depending on what you wanna use that power for, either build the block or dial it down a little, I’m at around 450 ft-lbs right now to be safe on a stock engine, it’s a blast to drive.

Yeah this car is strictly a street vehicle. Pulls here and there, I just want the power because I KNOW I HAVE IT lol. I was thinking about just dialing it down as you mentioned, but I'll need the willpower not wanting to crank it all the way up! I just want to be in the low to mid 500's in terms of WHP. I'll be happy with that. So if you're at 450 ft-lbs, how much WHP do you have? Sounds like a stupid question, but when it comes to tuning and how power is calculated, my mind explodes.

I’m at 542whp, I have a TT kit, but same principal for what the stock engine can handle.
