Beefing Up an A500

This is a basic list if you are set on making it tougher.
Hardened input shaft
5 disc billet forward drum
4 pinion steel planetary sets
16 roller rear sprag
shift kit
Kolene friction discs
Kevlar bands
4.2 (?) ratio front band strut/lever
Billet rear band piston

I may have forgotten something, but that is what you asked for.

All this looks like it stuff that might be found in a race transmission.

Really don't think you need all that but...

So do you think an "as built" A500 as found behind say a Magnum 175hp 3.9 would be fine behind a stock rebuilt 273/235. I'm guessing that possibly some, but not all of the mods you mentioned, would be needed behind a stock rebuilt 70 340. If so what would you recommend?
