Default Toploader

David- I bought a toploader with big input shaft (1 3/8) and big output that was for a 70/429 car. While everything looks new and rebuilt my question is this. Have you heard of torque-lock gears ? It sussposed to have them . This tranny has new gear clusters w/shinny new brass syncro's(no syncros chiped) and a long tailshaft.
Second-Have you ever put together a overdrive truck tranny using
big input/output(s) I would prefer it to be a close ratio gearset if possible, for the first 4 gears. This will go into a supercharged 500+ cu/in 2700 lbs cobra that has a 456 locker rear. I know such a tranny was never built but can it be pieced together by you? How much punch could such a tranny take? The cost? Thanks for any info/replys in advance.
