Default Anybody run a manual trans with BIG power???

I am contemplating on possibly switching my T400 for a T56 or TKO trans. I have 1000 hp and 800 ftlb of torque but I only run low profile 17" tires. The car does a 1.6 60' and weighs 3600 lbs without driver.

Reason I am thinking about this is for the extra gears for top speed and driveability on the road track and standing mile challanges I would like to do next year.

Any experience? I am trying to find out from those with similar setups what there pro's and con's are.

Thanks for any info.
