Dont think hes asking stock #'s, hes asking what CAN the motor TAKE.

More specific i think he means what the stock internals can take (WITH studs, egr delete)

Sorry i dont have anything to add that answers your question, but i am interested to see this answered too.

also, at what torque level do you need to put a new torque converter in the trans
