If you use the power, they will snap. You would probably have no end of headaches unless you upgraded front and rear axles as well. Although I have wondered about a nice high compression motor for decent torque and mileage, and limiting power by using an undersized carb or only allowing so much pedal travel. Then you can't have a moment of stupidity and floor it.
