To make 600+rwhp on 93 octane fuel without nitrous takes some serious work and meth injection I would think.
Could be wrong though, but I know the Corvetee guys struggle to seem much past 500-550rwhp with a Maggie setup on C5's.
Maybe a twin setup would work better, but I doubt it on a single intake manifold OHV. The Aston Martin V8 was a 5.3 OHC unit that ran twin Eaton M90's. In FULLY legal form it made 600bhp (flywheel) on 91 octane fuel. So big power is certainly available.

Im just saying that the roots style has much more potential. trust me.

you dont need twin blowers the new kenny bell is capable of supporting at least 800rwhp on a 408. It has already been shown on the LS1 vette they prototyped the kit on and it has been released for sale to the public.
