Well. First of all you cannot have a set of heads and cam that work extremely well on a 346 and then have them be even better on a 408. You can have one or the other. 205-215 heads on a 346 and 225+ on the 408. The bigger cams in the 346 are practically stock for a 408.
Heads/cam/nitrous might get you to 600rwhp. Heads and cam alone you will still be around 125rwhp shy of that goal. Unless you are talking about horsepower at the crank. Good heads are going to be around $1,800-2,400. So you might have to dial that 600 number back some.
