Welcome aboard thirdgen.org.

Whether it will "handle it" depends upon what you subject it to. Drag racing with a healthy 350? No way. Daily driving with an eased-out clutch and no full-throttle or speed shifting? Probably.

Both Tremec and Richmond make good stuff. You need to choose what they offer that's appropriate for your use.
