Steel doesn't fatigue unless you load it over half it's ultimate strength. Which is why you can get away with making big power on standard internals, because they can cope with over double stock power.

The important bit though, is how long they can cope with more power.
Custom roll cages/shiny suspension bits/general fabrication work undertaken, PM me.
Top engine mount repair/reinforcement/chocking for cracked chassis and high powered cars, drive in, drive out, 2 hour turnaround.
