start out with good cylinder wall thickness, aluminum main caps, hard fill it, keep the rotating weight reasonable along with the rpm, keep it out of detonation, deburr the block and remove all stress risers. (there are plenty)
those are the things that help keep those engines living in that HP range. there's never any guarantee, but if you don't do most or all of that stuff i can pretty much guarantee it will break at 750 hp.
regarding breaking at 600 HP, i'm not sure sure about that. i've built dozens of street/strip 600 hp motors over the last few years making more than 600 HP and not one has cracked that i'm aware of. 600 is easy to make with a 500+ inch combo.
