He's right...honda cranks are nitrided. Usually turning them down removes this and makes the crank weaker. Worse case scenario, don't beat it, and don't rev the piss out of it.

yup nitrided...they harden/treat the surface of the journals and then micro polish it.

I've seen stock b18a/b cranks hold over 650whp. I think it would be one of the last things I'd be worrying about in your setup. It's pretty rare to see a honda crank break.
