Default How much hp can a stock crank handle?

Ok, not that I'm going to be doing this anytime soon, but lets say that I have eagle rods and some nice pistons in my d16z6. Then I thow on a decent sized T3. I know the stock rods and pistons are the first weakest link at around 225hp, but after that whats the weakest point in a d series?

How much hp can a stock z6 crank handle before they fail? It's not a problem Ive heard of too much, so I'm guessing its not really an issue.

I would say the sleeves would be the next weakest link.

What all is there to do for helping that? Block posting? Block filler (i.e. devcon)? Sleeving is fairly expensive right?
