Default clutch hp ratings

I'm planning on buy a diamond or monster clutch in a day or two and was wondering is the hp ratings on these clutches wheel hp or flywheel hp?

Thanks for the info. I was hoping my clutch would last just a couple more months I'm going to be putting a lq9 in with prc 225 heads and a ms3 cam in November/December. my question is would a monst/diamond stage 3 clutch for a bolt on ls1 be to much, or would it be alright to drive around for a few months until I do the motor swap. I do dd the car.

Congrats on the LQ9! I'll be doing one here in the next week along with with my 5.3 heads and a bigger cam! If that's not a twin disk clutch it might be a little heavy and not like much slip, but I can't see why it would be a real problem for right now

I can't comment on the Diamond, but I would recommend asking the manufacturer if you want the right answer...ours are rated at the wheels

Tried calling you guys today. Left a message. I'm wanting to order my clutch with a tick master on Wednesday.
