Default Axle experts - Atlas vs 4HA vs ??

Are there any other options rather than the heavy 4HA or Atlas axle for very high power/torque (600bhp/ftlb) .
Is an Atlas up to that kind of power?
Any suggestions as to other possible options?

I do not think the atlas will handle anything near that without serious modification. The other possibility is a volvo axle,i think its from the old 244,have heard of the Hilux axle being used,best bet is to ask on Osf or Turbosport.
