They'll handle over 600 ft/lb , more iirc , Rod has one on his Sapph and it's been on for yrs without any problems so i believe, i don't know where you buy them though .

You cant a bell housing or adapter is required. I run a TKO600 & my engine is over 800bhp & its trouble free. Reyland Motorsport offer this conversion probably your best bet.

You can get the boxes from Roadcraft - they supply alot of the cobra replica types running SBF's. Mine came from there, but as it's behind a V8 too, I can't comment on the bell housing/adapter issue.
The TKO 500/600 like mine and Rod's are strong boxes, but Tremec make other types too, so do your homework first.
Cheers
