How Much HP Can a 8 3/4 Handle?

ramcharger said
Can a 8 3/4 with aftermarket gears, axles and slicks withstand repeated 3500-4000 rpm launches behind 550 hp? Maybe 650 with N2o? Possibly with a braced housing? Is this stepping into Dana 60 territory?

Thanks in advance.

Good question ramcharger, I'd say yes to the 489, probably to the 742 and BOOM to the 741.
