well we've run about 375 hsp to the wheels on stock sleeves and stock pistons(b18c1). next month i will be able to tell you how much on stock sleeves and forged pistons/rods. we know of one person who pushed close to 450 with that combo. i will know personally in one month and i will post dyno and 1/4 mile times then, regardless of the outcome.

so to answer your question, a b18c1 motor will handle at least 375 to the wheels properly tuned.

you can run high boost levels with stock sleeves as long as your tuning is ok... I have built and seen many stock sleeve motors run over 25psi boost and over 525whp with stock sleeves

thanks for all of the replys. I guess that means 12-15 lbs. of boost should be o.k. then.
