What type of transmission will you be using behind that much HP? I have the Richmond Overdrive 6 speed in mine...but supposedly it is rated for only 450 HP...so my ~+630 HP will be tough on it...

A well built street strip C6 would likely be the toughest of the standard, affordable transmissions...but it's an auto..

As to my car...I have found a pro shop locally that has a dyno and does EFI tuning..so I should be able to get all that dialed in soon after break in...my cars progress crawls along....paint is still not completed after 5 weeks at the paint shop....
