Not Ranked
I have put 3550's and TKO's behind motors that made over 500 ft/lbs without the expected failure rate one might expect if they read the torque rating in the manual. The biggest problem the tremecs have is when guys shove them into gear while trying to speed shift, that uses up the synchros. At their low cost, you could replace it (whole tranny) twice for the cost of buying a beefier tranny. They are perfectly fine for spirited street driving and the occasional track day, not good enough for real racing.
