the block holds more than that i think.im not sure about an exact number but 450 is for the stock internals the actual block could hold more.

well i know a guy with a mach 1 withthe stock block and he is pushing 1016rwhp with an F1R procharger and nitrous...all with stock block. so the blocks are not an issue. the internals are the weak point. so you can push your block pretty darn hard and not break it.

I am pretty sure a good forged rotating assembly will cost about $1800.


EDIT: I realised thats not what you asked.

4.6 blocks will handle more power then 99% of people can afford to build.
