Making t56 stronger...

Ive been looking for things to make it stronger for a long time.
stock its 450 lbs tq, but i intend to get well past that pretty soon.

for racing trannies all i see are 4spd autos.. which i know are better, but i drive it as a daily driver now, and even when its not still want it to see 6spd for the fun factor... anything like a rebuild or even a different 6spd manual to swap with that can take like 600-700 lbs tq?????

thanks
cory
