Default Which Tranny?

I am trying to decide which transmission to use in my drag car. The G-Force T-5 with the beefed case or the new TKO-600. The gforce is going to cost about $2100 and the tko will be about $1600. Cost don't matter, it is dependability I am looking for. I am going to buy a blowproof scattershield too. I like my feet and intend to keep them. My motor only puts out near 400 fwhp. But it will be near 600 when I get done this winter. (I hope). FWIW, I am using 28 x 10 slicks on a 8.8 with 4.56 gears and 31 splines. I am leaning towards the tko. So the next question is which overdrive? The .82 or the .64? Clutch, pp, and scattershield suggestions are welcome. Oh yeah, I am looking to get at least 1.8 60's in this car.

Actually, I am looking to get 1.6 or lower and I will be happy. But a 1.8 is my highest allowable 60ft. I just won't tolerate any higher than that. Or I will be pissed.
