To answer this original question, what you need to do is add some "leakage inductance". This can be done by adding an air gap in the core but it's usually done by adding a magnetic shunt (with an air gap) across the magnetic circuit.How can I cap the output of the secondary coil at 140 amps?
hahahha I get soooo intimidated when looking at that Wikipedia page. I am a simple man with an even simpler brain. I wish I had a brain that understood (advanced) mathVery interesting - if slightly dangerous.

This is often done in arc welders, microwave ovens and neon sign transformers to limit the secondary current.
For a diagram and a picture of a transformer with an adjustable magnetic shunt see the bottom of this Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leakage_inductance
Also see the attached picture.

You have the transformer output shorted, so your output voltage is 0V!
