600+ horses... wow, and your not sure whether or not to build the head?

You'll probably need valvetrain, a good turbo-spec cams, and some pretty high rev's to achieve that, and I hope your sleeved. A few people as seen high 400 WHP with stock sleeves, but I would not try to venture anywhere near 600whp without BUILDING EVERYTHING, including the head.
