Probably not going to see 600 out of n/a 351w without power adder.
If you want that kind of power your going to have to stroke it to 408 or better,
with that and the right hci combo you'll be in the ballpark.

Awesome but the trick flow would be a good combo

Trick Flow makes some great stuff, a set of their high flowing cnc heads would work good.
As far as the intake goes, if going efi, you may want to consider a carb style with injector bugs and an elbow.
Cam I would suggest going custom for that kind of power/driveability.
I'm sure others will chime in with advice.

What you meant to say was everybody can build an engine, but not everyone can turbo or supercharge it.

Adding a forced induction system is the easiest way to make big power with a stock engine. A turbo can be had off of eBay for stupid cheap now a days, as can the rest of the kit for a SBF. That stuff, plus injectors, a fuel system up grade, and the bigger induction stuff to accomodate those injectors can all be had for less than a new set of heads for that 351.
