From experience, I can tell you that the M50D both versions will take quite a bit of abuse, but it won't last forever. They're great at holding if they're not mashed up before the swap. Hell I have seen em take 400 horsies at the wheels and hold up. They weren't designed to be racing transmissions though so granted it can hold it, I wouldn't rely on it.
