yup....the 465s are pretty much bullet proof. A good clutch is an absolute must....stg 2 or 3 centerforce. I've got a friend that's swapping in a 465/205 instead of his th400/205....he's blown up about 14 of these. I guess th400s can't handle 44's and 400hp. It actually cracks the cases straight in half in the middle.
