700r/4 power question!

How much power can you produce in a rebuilt 700r/4 before it can't handle it anymore? I'm trying to decided how much power I can turn in my Camaro before parts break or need to be replaced.

Once it is built with the "right parts", it can handle about 750 FWHP horsepower and live for awhile.

Thanks for you reply, I was only looking to put around 500hp behind it after having it rebuilt. When you talk about "right parts" can you elaborate on that?

The Borg Warner Hi-Energy 8 clutch 3-4 clutch setup. The late GM heat treated sunshell or the Beast. TransGo "modified" Shift kit along with the larger boost valves, Corvette servo, 29 element input sprag, Hi-Energy 2-4 band, etc. The right torque converter is critical to long life too.
