Rotating assembly hp & torque limit

Hi guys,

Technical information on my rotating assembly says that hp limits are:

- Crank: 500hp
- Rods: 525hp

On a dyno simulation, my combo should produce +- 360hp and if I put some extra-power (blower or paxton) wich will produce around 550hp will break the rotating assembly for the 50hp more than his limit?

In any case, more than 500hp will be fatal immediatly for my crank or the real limit is set a little bit higher?

What about the torque?

Thanks and hope you understand what I mean...
