I'll try answering seeing as no one else has. dont have an escos or 500bhp though 
Mike R, Ranj, yum (will be I think) are/will be running fixit gearboxes. they are 3k roughly and come with a life time warrantee
but there is quite a long wait for one!
some run quaiffe (efe, porkie iirc) but I THINK its a bit of a time bomb with over 500bhp. sean bicknell had r&d in his for a while but didnt get on with it iirc
you could get a skyline conversion - see zoo website for prices
hope this helps a tiny bit

I use a Quaife big tooth.........superb 
The gearkit (complete LESS casing) is about £ 2,800 - PM Bernie Gearboxman
But dont forget, you will also need stronger/uprated front & rear diffs and casings

Chip, your being very harsh on Phil, he's done LOADS to make sure that this mega power project will be a reality:
You've only got to read Phil's thread titles to know that here is someone
that knows EXACTLY what is is doing:
"OK whats my torque figure gonna be?"
"Hey all - good to be back"
"New name - thanks Stu, reality check for everyone"
"Traction Problem"
"Public apology to Spadge"
"Public apology to Karl"
"Public apology to SECS"
"Boost to be turned down"
"650 + BHP engine now underway!!"
"GT35 or GT40 or 42???"
"Just ordered my rods and turbo delivered"
"GT35 on it's way!"
"Should I do the 600 BHP project?"
"Wish me luck"
"For mappers - a stage 1 question"
"Bosch Man/IMA is now retired"
"Swedish plenium just landed"
"Stage 1 is fooking great"
"Buying a Jap car"
"ECU situation is now resolved"

I've got a pete doughty box uprated input shaft, straight cut second/third/fourth and fifth. this is going into my 4x4 sapphire, the engine was built by norris designs and dynoed (Spelling?) by him and we got 632bhp on race fuel. The car is off to martin hadland for twin plate hydraulic clutch setup. then we will see how long the gearbox will last. most of the time the car will be run on super which will be 584 bhp. everything will be crossed
ps all the diffs have been uprated thick wall front diff casing etc, etc, etc
