Most of what I have read seems to be around 700. It will go more but then they start talking about what needs changed out.

You talking motor or rwhp from boss motor?

The clutch, trans and driveshaft won't take that kind of HP for very long.

From what I have heard as long as the supporting mode are right....700-800 rwhp is realistically the range for the motor. The driveline wont last to long at that level. The trans is rated to about 380 torque...and the clutch and driveshaft struggle with the stock power. So if you going that big Hp wise... plàn on doing the driveline too.

I Make 625 but the factory clutch couldn't hold.

I make 862rwhp with factory clutch still. Been that way 4k miles. Plan on t56 and such in future. But think I am about done with rwhp until I do pistons and rods.

thanks for the info, plan on the range for 700hp. should be fast enough then.

Someone on this site recently just blew their Boss motor on the track using only the trackey and maybe a few supporting bolt ons. In theory, 700+ rwhp should be fine for a "forged" bottom end roadrunner motor but like others have said...driveline will surely need to be replaced soon after (I would think anyway).
