can my tranny handle it?

i had my trans rebuilt after my stock 100,000 mile tq coverter took a dump and blew shavings into my tranny wiping it all out!!!

heres the rebuild.
kevlar bands, new clutches, new valve body, 7clutches in the 3-4 pack instead of the stock 6. B&M upshift valve, low reverse mega boost valve, mega boost valve .500", 30% larger than corvette billet servo, and 50$ larger than stock 4gear servo. 13 vein pump, govner modded for higher shift points, trans go shift kit, deep pan, raptor blood racing fluid. 24,000 GVW trans cooler. everything else is stock etc. except the tq converter was 1800 stall and alil beefer than stock.

its going behind the new 383 HSR with approximately 480hp and alil less than 400rwhp. will it live? with a 2900 stall?

or should i just suck it up and spend the 270$ for a 9 clutch pack for the 3-4, the beast reaction shell, new band, 10vein pump, seals etc. is it really needed? or will mine destroy itself behind the 480hp?

noone???!!!

simple... will it handle it or should i spend the money and tear the trans apart to install the beast sunshell/10vein pump over the 13vein one i had installed from the 4L60E... will the stock sunshell explode with 480-500hp? or should i upgrade it now?
