anyone know, or know a place i can find out the max power i can make without tearing into the motor?

I'll tell you what everyone else is probably going to say. There is no real number but only a guess because not every motor is going to have the exact same breaking point.

I'm sure there is a "safe" number that you could go by but I'm not to sure of what that is.

true. Im just wondering if there is an estimate. some people say that its under 250 and others say its over 300. Im like wtf.

been doing alot of research on the 2.2's and from what i read, 160 wheel hp with boltons only. so i'd assume u'd be close to 180 wheel hp with boltons only.

with a built motor the 2.2 is capable of 250 and i'd say that with a built motor on the 2.4 probably 270.
