Breaking 3550's?

Well when i got the blower installed and tuned the other day, i knew i'd be putting out above the capacity of my 2 old style 3550's but didn't know the combo would hit as high as it did at 430rwhp, 454rwtq w/ clutch slip. going back later w/ a meth. kit and get back that 450-60rwhp she put out on a leaner A/F (11.1ish atm) w/ 470-500rwtq.

I'm pretty sure w/ hard launches on a holding clutch i'll eventually break the 10-spline in-put shaft. Really curious though has anyone heard/seen/experienced the 3550's just flat-out breaking on the hwy like T-5's are notorious for? W/ my out-put curious if i'll experience blowing 3rd/4th/5th gears like i have w/ the T-5's.
