The block can handle as much as the 302s in the foxes, around 450-500 hp before splitting, some blocks more or less. They have hyper pistons that aren't as desirable as the forged ones though. You can run some boost with those pistons though, just make sure the tune is spot on because they don't last too long with detonation.
Some have broken with 400rwhp some have taken 600rwhp for years and been ok. There are a lot of guys making 500rwhp on stock 94/95 shortblocks. Keep in mind the 93 Mustangs including the Cobra all had that same shortblock. The hyper pistons will not take much detonation though before failure. Usually they crack around the ring lands, I have one in my garage actually I will try and get a pic later. It came out of my friends 94 GT that took years of nitrous abuse, then a supercharger. It ran 12.2@114 NA and 11.2@125 with supercharger though.
