How much will my ram powergrip HD hold? ok heres the story I had a ram powergrip hd on my head/cam spray ls1. Worked great, no slippage at all under power
The factory rates it at 600/600. But Now I have a 408 with a heavy hit of spray, and I know Ill be going way over that number. Can this clutch hold more than what they claim am I forced to replace the clutch
The clutch is near new if that makes any difference, If it wont make it i guess I could sell it in the classifieds

I have had two in my 408 N/A and both have slipped within a few thousand miles with no track times. Hell, the car is just a weekened cruiser. My next clutch will be a GM LS7 clutch.
I might suggest a nice twin disk for what you are going to put on it.

An LS7 won't be enough for you.

I was told 600 ft/lbs rating for the RAM910 clutch I ran. I was only making 440rwhp/385rwtq and it lasted 20K miles before giving up. I didn't do a ton of drag racing with it but did road race it and drive it pretty hard. Pedal pressure was very very firm and it chattered like a SOB if you didn't slip it just right.
Get a Textralia OZ700 or Exo-Skel twin disc.
