Good question I am curious myself.
My clutch held thru LT headers, LS6 intake, Vararam and DR's. After the cam swap the weak link was identified, the clutch. I think it will hold for awhile, but it is likely to slip IMHO.

It will not! My clutch screams like little girl every time I spray. Go ahead and plan on a new, stronger clutch. Mine's going in for one next month.
Good luck!

My stock clutch barely held my first cam (TR227) and headers. The first set of heads I threw on it were the last nails in its coffin. I would think a 125 shot would kill it pretty fast.

Depends, my stock LS6 clutch now has 42k on it and it's been SC the entire time. I'm due for a replacement though. :bang: If you plan on a lot of strip time I'd think it won't last too long.

42k on an LS6 clutch with that kind of power? You sir are a lucky man. I just helped a friend swap a G5X3 in his '03 Z06 and we could really smell the clutch after he got on it and it is still untuned (other mods were LT Headers and a Haltech breather). I guess everyone's experience will be different, but I wouldn't trust it.

It's been receiving over 400/400 since it went to LPE direct from GM so it's seen alot although it's only seen about 1k with the cam/headers combo. I'm planning on the LS7 set up since I won't be at the track often. Lucky for sure. :) Hopefully it'll last until this winter...

Do you plan on going to the track often? If so you'll find out in a hurry what it can/can't take. I haven't read anything about how that clutch performs so I can't really help you too much.
