now I prolly will not be doing gears for a while, I like to have some top end speed and is the differential and cover a necessity, what all would it do for me? maybe thinking it will snap under the power? also what all is the driveshaft loop?

Basically, you need to realize that with that much power, you're gonna break stuff. It's inevitable. A buddy of mine has a blown GT, making around 400rwhp. He finally gave up on it cause it was having so many problems. If you're careful and safe, you'll be ok, but still, things will go wrong under pressure.

A driveshaft loop goes around your driveshaft so that essentially, in case the driveshaft breaks under WOT, it won't break through your floorboards and chop your legs off.
