Even almost 500ftlbs? With slicks? Do I have to beef them up? Bigger studs or somthing...

Nope... you'll be fine

The sheer strength of those studs is MASSIVE and would worry about the axles, trans and such, as the studs will be fine with whatever you do. Maybe, you start running 3K HP and funny-car fuel the studs may come into play
