All the Billets hold in most the CR engines, its the cranks that go after that.

Beat the crap out of it without adding vent hole to a good block. Lets say 1500 range max. Planning for the future.
 
There is a set of Carrillos in the classifieds for $2400, you wont find them any cheaper than that.
 
I have used Crower,Carillo,Eagle,Oliver in past various builds but I know things are always changing so I was seeing what is the latest greatest ones out there.
I figured you pull guys hammer them the hardest but see no street action to pound them for 10's of thousands of miles on the street and track.
 
Typically pound-for-pound an I-beam is stronger however, without knowing the alloy, after treatment, and exact geometry we're basically guessing.

Have fun.
 
I would look at tool steel rods. There are a few companies making them.
 
I spent my money on R&R... will let you know if I break em next year
 
I'm running TTS. Heard stories from our local performance guru of guys windowing blocks and still being able to reuse them.
