you'll be okay for a while as long as you break it in properly.

I ran one in my old twin turbo 01 SS at the 580rwhp level for quite some time. Car ran 11.8@130. We then ran the car on the street at the 675rwhp with no issues but it wasn't launched hard.

Street use it'll be fine, but I wouldn't try to break any 1/4 mile records with it.

We've had great results with the Spec Stage 3+ clutch assembly at your power level, which is what I would use. Bob
