I bought the RAM muscle car clutch and its worked for the most part for me. I've got about 10-12 thousand miles on mine but I've noticed under aggressive driving it will slip if you pound on it more then five - ten minutes straight. I run the 1/4 mile too and as long as it has time to cool down it hasn't slipped on me yet, still turns tire in third gear and fourth sometimes.

Bottom line its a "premium" oem replacement, if you're running any real power bump up to one of their higher models.

Sounds like it will work for my application. I'd adventually like to stroke and procharge the car but for now it will be a bolt on weekend beater.
