Default 800+ hp, 2400lbs and PG

My goal is to have my 2400lbs door car closer to 8.5's which is a limit for the chassis. It now has ran 8.96 / 151 in good air with a 509. So it has now about 700+ hp.

My PG is stock case, stock pump, 1.76 stock planetary and 7 high gear clutch discs. It has been working fine for about 80 passes. I'm using transbrake with only 3600 launch rpm (because of full .500 tree, bottom bulb start) with 5000+ stall speed 8" converter. 4.33 gears, 32x14x15 GY slicks.

Usually it runs 9.10's in normal air so I think 800-850 hp would get it always in to 8's, but will the PG hold up? If not, what should be upgraded?
