wtq in Ft lbs not nm.

520tq is about 700nm.
If I build motor, and can hit close to 700nm, then I will be on the limit of the VR30 trans and need to build it. By the time I do all that, the costs would be close to doing a ZF870/75 swap I rekon which can handle 700/750nm torque, but also most likely be faster than the VR30 trans. So I think I would go with the ZF8 then the VR30
