Is it possible to get 450 horsepower out of strickly bolt ons?? If so, what is the best way of going about getting it?? I am looking at cam, intake, throttle body, etc!!

It might be possible with a very aggresive heads/cam setup and a radical tune, with ALL of the bolt-on's.
You need to go bigger cubes if you want that kinda power naturally aspirated, otherwise.

though the general consenus is
bolt on = stock interenaled
cam only = bolt ons plus cam
h/c = bolt ons, cam, heads
450hp and i assume thats crank equals 380rwhp w/ an m6. thats on the raggeed edge of possibility but 360-370rwhp is usually the max.

I have heard of a cam only ls1 making 430rwhp.... has to be a brutal cam, but ive heard of it, i have no proof, but lloyd elliot claims that with h/c and bolt ons some of his kits will give in the low-mid 400rwhp.... that is with good tuning for sure
