Default Modifed 351 windsor

Hey im new here to the forums and stuff but any way i got a totally stock 1995 mustang lx with a 5spd. But im planning on putting a nicely modified 351 windsor (approx 400-500hp) in my mustang! i was wondering if the Ford racing Tremec 5spd would be able to handle it ?? the rear end is gonna be a ford 9" with probably 3.73's.
thanks

Itll take it...... depending on the mileage it has now, bands might be weak... But Ive seen them handle 500+

Later on you should throw in a Lentech

Well i was planning on buying a new tremec five speed.. with a clutch that can handle at least 600lbs of torque.. not a stock.. but if theres a better 5spd tranny out there that will fit thee 351w i would look into it , if any one knows of any that would be great
