Default What is currently the highest rwhp recorded on the stock 3v block?

Just curious if anyone knows.. I saw that BBR has the highest hp recorded on 3v with a 2.8 kenne bell mammoth at 834 rwhp 770rwtq. That was done using the stock block.

I haven't come across anyone who has done in a stock block without having an internal give and do the damage first. The block itself is solid. It's the rotating assembly that you have to watch out for. But what you posted is the highest I've seen on the stock block platform. There was a guy who put his 1100hp stang up for sale awhile back but I'm not sure what block he was using.

agreed with siggy. The block will take all you can throw at it. The aluminum 4.6 block is one of the best around. You will not have a BLOCK failure. The internals will cause any problems that you may have, damaging the block.
