Yes i know the Allison trans well, we had many of them coupled to screaming Detroits in the oil field for running high pressure triplex pumps.
We even had jet turbines and V12 Cats with Allison trans running frac pumps.
When you are pumping slime over a km beneath surface and hydraulically splitting the earth apart (fracturing) with pressures up to 15,000psi, it takes some huge horsepower, all driven through Allison trans in our case.
Seen many things fail but never a Allison trans.
