I suppose it could be found by sacrificing a couple of the stock FETs. Run for about 30-40 minutes at a set current level, if they don't smoke, let them cool off and start again at a higher current level. Repeat the test until they smoke.

You'd need access to a regulated power supply with an adjustable current limiter. Run the FET output to a very low impedance load, and use the adjustable current limiter on the supply to set the current level.

I don't have such a supply at the moment, and have no great need to buy one. Plus this testing would be time consuming.
