Default Will 617 Mercedes eat my yota R150?

Have R150 5 speed OD tranny behind a 3vz-v6 at the moment. The v-6 will be replaced by the 617 Benz turbo. Any opinions on if this tranny will hold up?? No hot rodding expected, but going into a mini motor home. It will get lots of miles hiway use in OD.

It will be fine, they hold a lot more power than the OM617 is going to put out in stock form.
