Graham .... thinking about it .... consider what UT says about the tranny. A T5 is ok, and could last a good while behind 450hp/420tq with only 2400# holding it back you'll be traction limited. Put a set of sticky tires on and the T5 could be working hard to keep up. I'm with UT in suggesting one of the TKO's. That'll be the last tranny you put in.
