Likely to Break shaft nose when Off-alignment and under load, and crank bearing is doing it job.

FWIW the 4L80 0.75 OD seems ideal with the 469 and 3.54.
I broke the input shaft off my T10 in my formula. It sheared off right at the base. I thought it was because of my awesome and powerful motor (lol) but now I think it was probably just misaligned.
