How much power can these new 5.0 motors handle?

[QUOTE="Mike50, post: 11997051, member: 131797"] You guys are making me feel paranoid now. I've been running around feeling relatively safe (576 RWHP). In the back of my mind, I keep thinking about all the guys on here dragging and tracking their 5.0's with 620+ RWHP. Just so I understand the consequences, what am I looking at as far as money goes? Can the entire engine be toasted? What if it's just a rod, or just a piston? I wouldn't have attempted the SC install myself, let alone building an engine, so I would have to pay someone to do it. Do performance shops like Evolution and JDM do that? How much would it cost to have all the forged whatchamacallits installed, including labor? Has anyone done this yet, or do most people wait for something catastrophic to happen first, then invest in a rebuild? [/QUOTE]
