the stock 4.6L 2V crank?

I would not try taking a stock crank to 600 WHP.

It goes without saying that the rest of the assembly is gonna give up a LONG time before that.

I know the heads and so forth would give out... but what about the stock short block... what will that bad boy hold up to?

440-460 is about all I have seen them making. Anything more than that and you are asking for it.

I was worried about 415~ WHP with a good tune. I feel comfortable at 415~ but I do not want any more.
