The gear drive rear PTO turns at around 515 RPM, and they already make an adapter to take it up to the same size as the larger 540 shaft. Not really any need to make it run faster. It's not like a 540 RPM piece of equipment has to be run at exactly 540. Why bother with a reverser anyway? Not like they make any implements that you can put on the GT. Just leave it and focus your time on making an implement that can run off the reverse direction PTO.

Bingo, that's what I have in mind, I have several small 1:1 right angle gear boxes some that turn the same direction some that reverse.. I've got a couple 1:1.5 which may also work, anyhow that's just the basis for my idea..

I think you better sit down with a pencil and do some math..... To run a #2 tiller off the rear PTO, your going to have to really speed things up...... You'd have to redesign the whole drive for the tiller, and you only have what, 8" between the tiller and the back of the tractor.... Not enough room for a gearbox and a driveshaft with two knuckles. Better off keeping it running off the front PTO.

This is like the chicken or the egg question, implements or the way to use them.
What I had in mind for this box was that it would have the same outside look as the rear cover plate, just like it just thicker. With a pulley out the side and a 540 type shaft coming ou the rear.
I wanted to make a three point sickle mower to use.
I don't like the box that I have seen with the pulley on the side, it seems added on.
I know it's silly cause there is easier ways to do this but I have a vision..

Even if I dont reverse and never be able to use the shaft out the back it will look cooler than the boxes that I have seen

Unless you have a big stack of money to burn...... I don't think you will find this feasible. Have you ever priced having a gear made? And you can't make them out of cast iron. Gears have to be made of steel.

Under edit: I see you run a CNC. Still.... have you ever made a gear?

Sickle mowers don't care which way you turn the input shaft. They work no matter what. No need to build anything but a driveshaft. You are really making this more complicated than it is.

I don't run a Cnc. I hire people to run mine.
I also have made thousands of gears.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
