This is from ext2.txt (ext3.txt is not that detailed) in kernel sources documentation:

Thanks. Not sure about the block size on my filesystem, but good to know that at least 16 GB is allowed. Now I just need to find out if there is a size limit for tar. Cannot find anything about that in the documentation.

Tar is a sequential access based program. So it "might" have limits on how big a single file within the archive is, but it should not have any limitations on the size of the overall archive.
