What engine are you using for 700hp? Because it sure isn't a magnum v8. 9.25 will hold up to anytbing you can do to v8 magnum.

It would likely tolerate 700+ horsepower as well, as it will NEVER be able to use all that power. Simply won't have enough traction for it.

Not stock but caltrack and tire choices would make it work. There's a few people turning 600-650whp with 9.25's

The Chrysler 9.25 would work fine.
