HP Torque Limit for early W58 and/or R154 Transmissions

I'm doing a 3SGE/W58 swap, and I'm going to turbo the f**k out of it, but someone (with a bunch of indycar motors sitting in the background) put the scare into me that I should be doing a 3SGE/R154 swap because I'll probably end up twisting a W58...
This begs the questions:
What's the practical HP/Torque limit for roadracing a W58?
What's the practical HP/Torque limit for roadracing a R154?
My targeted HP is 500HP at the crank. I've got a 2-plate Quartermaster clutch that will hold 600+ lb/ft of torque, and the rest of the motor will be built accordingly.
I only have a bellhousing for a W series, and I don't fancy the time involved in making a new bellhousing for a R154...
I suppose that begs another question - would people be interested in buying a R154 bellhousing if one were made?
Thanks in advance for all of your opinions, insights, advice, criticisms, or even just snide heckling!!!
