Tell that to my stock block that see's 8100-8300 daily and has seen a few 8600 4th gear pulls at local roll racing events.

Its not RPM's or HP that snaps rods on the Evo its TQ. Keep it below 450. Hell I would even say closer to 400 and the stock block will stay together provided you aren't doing anything stupid.

Thanks for the numbers, I will be sure to watch out for that. I assume a sharp torque spike is bad as well, even if I'm not running much torque?

Don't forget, majority of dynos down under use dynodynamics. As you stated tq. below 400 is key.
