Default Ram Powergrip(Non-Hd)

Ok my clutch is a LS6 clutch. It started slipping at high rpm before I put the car up for the winter. The clutch and rebuilt trans only have about 5,000 mile on them. It was holding fine in the spring when I had my old motor with 365rwhp and 342 tq. I blew that motor in May and put the motor in my sig in in August. It now has 401 rwhp and 383 tq and I was thinking thats why its slipping now. I was thinking of resurfacing the flywheel (only 5,000 miles) and installing a Ram Powergrip. I see a lot of HD guys but I wanted to know how the Powergrip(Non HD) would be with my power.

I toasted a powergrip HD in about 5 months and i was only making 400WRHP 400 FLBS....They say that the LS7 Clutches are pretty good but i went ahead and put a RAM Dual Disk in instead

I was thinking LS7 but I just wanted to give an aftermarket clutch a try. Since the Ram is only $369 I figured I might try it.
