With Teflon insulated wire and Scotch 27 tape between windings probably 4-5KV.
A Hi-Pot tester is great for such things.

Hello Carl,

I  am  beginning  to  build  an LF amp using a GS35B tube, what do you
reckon the HV limit is for a Pi coil wound on a toroid? At 136 kHz air
wound coils start to get pretty big nd bulky.... Thanks

amps.
Ive run two 200-2A's on 160 for about 30 years in a modified NCL-2000
without problems at 1200W including AM.
Dont forget to wrap each one with a layer of Scotch 27 HV tape and then wrap the stack before winding. I also used #14 stranded Teflon wire as that was
what I found on a big reel at a scrap dealer.
