Okay, let's clear this all up for everyone. Here's my questions and everyone wants to know which is the best for them so let's here some thoughts.
So obviously the toro s is meant to be the sucessor to the NaCl and winch. This will be come in the same four sizes, 50/60 51/61. This is a 5.3:1 ratio reel, what's the IPT on this? And is it as bullet proof as the old 5.4 NaCl gears?
Ambassaduer beast now is the round reel that has the Muskie graphics and has the spool release like the old c3, this is the reel that retails for 399$ it is suppose to be the best musky fishing reel ever made by Garcia. But it's only offered in the 6500/6501 size and it has a 5.1:1 ratio according to tackle warehouse. What's the IPT on this?
Now the toro beast is the bass reel that's suppose to be for all big game fishing but it's only offered in 7.1:1 ratio and sure it has 22lb of drag but will it burn out right away?? Someone give me some more insight on all of these reels and maybe help clarify the confusion.

If you read the other posts you will find the answers you seek. And you mean successor to NACL, not predecessor. And not sure that's an accurate description anyway.

Revo Toro Beast, made for Muskie fishing:
Revo Toro S, Muskie reel:
Ambassadeur Beat retro model, please notice the push button release instead of a thumb bar, cast control knob, etc. Retro. Collectable, and attractive to those who began fishing way back when with a Swedish 5000 model that looked pretty much like this w/O graphics and the Beast gearing:
