Rear end

How much HP can the rear end take? I was curious since it isn't a solid axle. I want to get up to abour 400 rwhp, and eventually add a blower etc. once the funds are there. So can I keep it stock or will it need upgraded.I thought the Turbo350 was good to about 400hp.
Thanks

RE: Rear end

Well the early Sharks ('68 & '69) w/ L88s must have been good for 500+ since that's what those monsters put out w/ headers and open exhaust. Believe they had Turbo 400s tho.
