How strong is a T-5 transmission?

I'd run a "World Class" T5 behind a blown slant without hesitation... What say ye, @RustyRatRod?

Yeah they will live fine. The one I have is a 1995 World Class Tremec T5. The stated max torque spec is 330 LBFT, but all the Ford guys agree they'll take "somewhere" above 400. Suffice it to say they'll live fine. I'm doing it to mine, too.
