You may want to check with Bill or Brian or Daryl before you start using the FPs for a drive system without modifications.
My understanding is that they make a special aluminum gear that replaces the plastic gear on that last stage of the output.
Bill showed me it once.
In fact, I have used the very system they showed me.
As it turns out, W.M. Berg (wmberg.com) sells a gear that can be used to replace that last gear in the FP gearbox. It requires some machining in order to get it the torque out of the gearbox somehow (machining off the plastic gear, bolting in the aluminum gear, etc.), but the gear profile and thinkness are perfect.
FYI.
