How much power can a WAP block really handle? - 2003-04 Mach 1 Registry Owners Club

Had a chat with a Hellion Turbo tech and he inform me that their single turbo kit for the Mach 1 makes about 600 rwhp with 61mm turbo

. I know the stock bottom end won't be able to handle that power, so my plan is to replace the rotating assembly with forged internal parts, as well as have billet oil pump gear installed. My only concern is the stock WAP block, because I'm not sure how much power it can handle before I would need a cast iron or Teksid block. What are you guys' opinions and experiences with the WAP block when it comes to forced induction?
