I don't think it will hold. Do a search on the LS7 clutch. People are having issues with less hp

No chance in hell at the track. Maybe on the street with street tires because you'll just blow the tires off.

You would think it would hold alot being behind a 505HP (flywheel) 427.. but its also in a lighter car... i have been hearing mixed reviews about it.
