Where did you get those stupid numbers? Cite the scientific testing that was done to determine those cutoffs. They look like SWAGs to me.
I can build a Type 1 gearbox that will easily take 200ftlbs for less than $500.
Whether a trans can withstand a certain peak torque has very little to do with the design, and much more to do with the idiot behind the wheel.
