If you really get into gearboxes and drive trains, consider investing in nice DuMont 3/8" and 1/2" hex broaches. No more keyway craziness. I called up a DuMont rep several years ago and we worked out a deal, I bought the 3/8" broach, he donated the 1/2" and we had to place their stickers on our 2005 bot.

aluminum gears with the kinds of torque you see in *normal* gearboxes (think toughboxes) will not hold up.

We are working on some 50 tooth 6061 aluminum gears, but it is too early to see how they are performing. Yes, ideally, it would be nice if these were 7075, but they are not. We will have some results by mid-July.
