Default Induction heating question

I have a small run of parts that have a #3 Morse taper on one end. At
the small end of the taper is a straight diameter that's .700 diameter
by .600 long. The material is 17-4 PH stainless. I want to harden the
small end only. To do this it must be heated to 900 degrees F and held
there for a while. I was wondering if a 2000 watt induction heater
would be up to the task. I know there are many variables but there
must be a minimum amount of power needed. Anybody know?
Thanks,
Eric


Why not simply stick em into a broiler?
