depends how you drive it, if you smash 2nd and 3rd too often with that sort of power it wont last long at all.

Don't change gears, and only use brand new gearboxes or gearsets. Basically even the best A-series blokes never put more than 200hp through their boxes.
300hp..tell him he's dreaming ..time to look for the delco 5 speed Toyota box conversion bellhousing..

The celica steel case 5 spd should cope with the power and torque.

Or get some sort of auto made up to suit... if straight line stuff is what you've built it for.
