Default what is measured rear wheel hp or crank hp

i'm wondering with the stock 4.6 it will handle 400hp before things start to break, but is that rear wheel hp or is it at the crank because i'm pritty close to 400hp at the wheels but before i try to get the whole 400hp i waunt to make sure it is safe.

Several members are in the 440 WHP range.

I recommend staying around 420 just to have a LITTLE safety window. I also recommend you get a bad *** tune, otherwise problems WILL occur.
