So ive got my motor all built, but my crank is just a stock crank. My question is, how much can this crank take. I looks like its out of a big block so im thinking its good for quite a few ponies. Anyone have any good ideas? Im working on throwing a turbo on my car right now, just wanted to know what i can push it to.

yup. ive never of a stock crank having issues as long as a 2.3 oil pump swap is done... if not you're begging for a rod bearing failure. and 9 times out of 10 doing that screws the crank. but that has nothing to do with longevity.
there have been a handful of cranks here pushed to at least 400whp and they are all/have been doing just fine.

already got hte 2.3 pump in, so i should be good to go.
