Default C5 Clutch

Sorry guys search isn't working for me. Anybody know if the stock clutch will hold up to 450 rwhp? Is it stronger for the vette being rear mounted or just like fbodies? I am about to start modding my vette and I hate the feel of aftermarket clutches had a horrible experience with a clutchmaster.

I looked at the site it lists 3 different 0z700 clutches each about 100 bucks difference but no clear explanation of the differences. Which one did you opt for and how does it feel?
