Default Quick Transmission question

(noob question) Can you buy a transmission with the gears preinstalled, also if anyone could recommend any transmission for a 1/10 scale 2wd slash that can handle a lot of power well thats under $80

There really is no other trannys for the slash 2wd outside what comes with it. There might be some aftermarket gears, and I know RPM makes an aftermarket casing though. Pre-made though the only thing would be a magnum 272 off ebay(what is what is stock)
The stock should be able to handle more power then you could deliver to the ground so I dunno what you are really considering high powered, what you consider high powered, and why you are going overkill.

The magnum 272 is great all steel gearsets in it and they can take 1/8 scale motors and mod 1 gearing,being plastic casing id suggest using big washers both sides of the motor mount to spread weight but ive put them on a tamiya falcon and a thunder tiger phoenix $30,youtube 100mph rustler,traxxas rwd trannies are a great piece of engineering.

but then why yours should already have the steel gearsets in it check.
