Best clutch for 300+rwhp?
Been looking at replacing my clutch and was wondering what the best clutch for the money is for a 300rwhp car. Might be a 150hp shot of nitrous in the future so I want enough clutch for that too. I've heard good things about the Spec clutches, anybody running one? I had a Centerforce DF that the pressure plate went bad early so I don't want that. Anybody have an opinion?

I like the centerforce dual friction clutch. Held fine with 430 rwhp.

Centerforce will work, but they wear out realy quick. Ram makes some really good clutches. I curently have a Sacs gold series clutch, and I have 300 at the fly. It can handle a lot more then that.

I had the Centerforce and the pressure plate wore funny, started having problems with the clutch not releasing fully. It worked well, until it didn't anymore. I've heard alot about the Spec clutches and they're about the same price, not real sure which way to go.

LOL, Ive had my cenetrforce in the car since i bought it , March before last. Has about 20 hard runs on it, and before that, the previuos owner had it in for 2 years on the street. In fact, The W.C T=5 broke twice (thats not saying much) and clutch is still good. I do play with the adjustment once in a while, that i do notice.
