Default What clutch for 550-600rwhp and 2800lbs?

I am currently in the process of collecting parts to do my single turbo(76-80mm) lq4 6.0l 6speed swap in my 89 rc 2wd s10. My projected rwhp is somewhere between 550 and 600. The biggest majority of the time this truck will be on the street where traction will be at a min. But there will be the occasional trip to the track with a set of slicks or drag radials.

My question is what would be the best clutch for the cost for what i have?
Thank you for your input!

If your going to see track time with a stickey tire I would suggest our RXT twin disc unit. It has the holding power you need with the pedal pressure of a Toyota.

I'd recommend our Diamond Stage 2 complete kit. It comes with a dual-friction 12" disc, so it has near stock driveability, and is good for 600hp. Also comes with a lightweight chromoly flywheel and slave cylinder. 12mo/12k warranty. Price is $759 shipped. Check out the website www.diamondclutch.com
