Default big plans, what transmission?

right now im getting ready to install a vortech s-trim on my car. In september im leaving to go on deployment and when I get back Im getting a built block, trick flow heads, and upgrading the tranny that way I can use nitrous also. My question is what transmission would be the best for a car that is pushing 550+whp?

That's what I've got and I'm about 550 to the wheels as well...in that range anyway.

I didn't click the link, but I know Liberty Gear makes a 26 spline input shaft for the T56. I think it's only $350.

does the same go for t-45s? I know you can buy them outright for $1450 or so.
