Default Centerforce twinplate clutch, is it strong or weak?

Has anybody here had good results with a Centerforce twin plate clutch and a boosted engine. McCleod will usually give a max torque figure. Centerforce say stock plus 90%. What do you suppose stock is? There are different stocks depending on the engine? I'v used McCleods because on the phone the guys are helpful and give out the information I need. I never got that with Centerforce in the past so I'm wary. I'm tempted to buy a clutch at $300 but I'd like some independent opinions. Thanks, Mike.

I thought centerforce wasn't up to par for our cars?? I think mcleod has some solid setups in just about any power rating you want to be at.

I'd be looking at the McLeod Twin-Disk or the Star Carbon Fibre or Ceramic. Both have held down 9 & 10 second boosted LS1 F-Bodies...
