In the right build, right applicaton, and in the right hands, 4-figure horsepower is possible. In the wrong hands/wrong build/wrong application, it is not.

The Chinese cast stroker cranks are not good for real high HP builds, You need to look into a 4340 forging, the Chinese forgings are acceptable but most makes require remachining them to make them right, better choice is something like a Bryant, the forging and finish are top rate.

I ended up getting the Crower billit crank and child & Alberts rods back from the guy who bought it from me Twisted Evil and decided to build me a monster. Gunna get me an A460 block in January, just need to find some lower compression pistons for the set-up.

You might want to talk to Gold at Fastlane machine in Orem UT. He just built a low compression 600 for twin turbos. Had to custom design the pistons through diamond for the tight A head chambers and still have room for boost. Very cool looking piston. Deep dish you could eat cereal out off in the morning. I believe he was over 800 on the dyno naturally aspirated.
