Default new to forum

hey all, what's up? I'm new to this forum, found it cuz I'm thinking about getting a FFR kit and making my own powertrain combo...

I was just wondering what you guys think of the combo I want to run, any input, pros/cons...

here it is...

forged 331 stroker block, 8.5:1 compression
kenne bell 2200 blower (9 psi street, 13 psi autox, 20 psi strip)
Tremec T56 tranny
carbon composite driveshaft
independent rear suspension (3.73 gears)
17" rims for road course, 15" for drag strip

how does that sound? I know the project is going to take a while to complete, I plan on 2-3 years for it

so what do you think? my main concern is whether the trans will hold up to that much power. I know a T56 can handle about 475 lbs of torque in a mustang, but since the FFR is so much lighter, any estimates on how much more it'll handle?
