Looks like the real deal to me!

BTW, the ZO6 clutch kits (clutch, pp, flywheel) go for around that price at Scoggy Dickens, though it doesnt include the pilot bearing, t/o bearing, or line up tool.

It is holding my 400rwhp just fine (though I have yet to beat on it).

That's a good clutch as long as you don't plan on multiple 2000rpm dump launches. It's rated at 540 ftlbs of torque, has smooth engagement and is manufactured by the company that makes the OEM clutches.

Okay im not much of a clutch man but if the thing is rated at 540 ftlbs then shouldnt it be able to take a bunch of abuse from a less powerful engine??? i sure as hell know that ill be beating on mine a bit and im not gonna be pushing more than 400rwtq however this is in a 2800l car
