stock 1ga internals

how much hp can the stock 1ga internals handle? I searched but couldnt find it.

You couldn't find the answer because it doesn't exist. There's no point at which all the connecting rods say "alright guys, lets break now".

Having said that, most people generally expect stock 6-bolt internals to withstand about 450 crank HP. However, bad tuning can destroy an engine at any power level.

ok. but I thought the 2g pistons were better, amd could take more hp. and I know those take 450.

2G pistons have higher compression.

any other advantages than that?

higher compression yields more horsepower and quicker spool up
