stock 305/350 crank
was wondering, how much will a stock 305/350 crank hold up to, i am building a 400hp motor and was wondering if it can hold it, if not, then off the GM forged.

thanks

I think it'll hold up to 400 HP at the flywheel, but I'd seriously consider an ATI harmonic balancer.... and rev limiter.
