Taken from that article
Consider this: 800 hp is a lot. On a 122 cubic inch motor with 750 hp -- three-quarters of a thousand -- you're basically dealing with 6.14 hp per cubic inch. Pressures and stresses of all kinds -- thermal and mechanical loading across the board -- escalate to extreme levels. A Chevrolet 5.7-liter LS1 V8 with this much specific power (horsepower per cubic inch) would be making 2,137 hp.


Whoh!

Yes, because I broke my original engine, at the moment I have a 1.0 16v Micra engine in there...

See this posted on Mig a few months ago. I like the chart down the bottom where it shows what parts to replace at what stage you wanna go for
