T5 with a 450HP 383 stoker? How much can a T5 handle?

I have a 84 z28 camaro. It was a 383 stroker with about give or take 450 hp. I had a th350 in it. and it let go. But my question is, I have a whole t5 set up from a iroc, that i would like to put in it. It wouldnt be to hard considering my car was an original t5 car. But will this trans even make it a couple months with my motor set up? will I just fry the clutch? and will the clutch even hold up at all if i get on it a few times?

Thanks Curt

The harder you drive the faster it will break. The easier you drive the longer it will last... interpolate the rest of the graph.
