I have been considering a move to a 580 cu in 572-13 motor with 15/1 compression on methanol. Expected power would be over 1050 hp at 7400 rpm. Torque will be 800 + somewhere. Can stock input and output shafts handle this kind of power? Launch will be about 4800 rpm or less, with a converter that will flash to 6300 behind this beast. Tires are 10.5 x 33 hoosiers so shock from launch shouldn't be too bad. Tell me your experiences of stock shaft failures so i can figure out whether i want to try this.
