I'm currently running a complete SLP flywheel/clutch assembly, but I've got a new Spec 4 sitting in the garage for a blower buildup. I haven't used it yet, so I can't really testify as to how well I like it. If you can't find a vendor in the huge list of sponsors on the right side of this page, then you might try http://www.Schochperformance.com when the site gets reloaded. He had the cheapest price I found, but it might have been some sort of special...

off the subject, but what turbo are you using that will make 500-600 hp. are you also doing heads, and cam, and the spec 2 will be a good choice, the stage 3 is a little much for a daily driver.

pushing over 400rwhp with built lt4 using hotcam etc, looking at using a super 60 T4 rear mounted, with long tubes no cats and programing out the rear o2 sensors, for now the motor is a 350, next year i will be building a 427 cu in LT4 bottom end and probably porting out the LT4 heads, oh yeah no egr, evap, smog pump, def not street legal in cali but oh well... so i need a clutch that can handle that... looking at the spec stage 5(spec claims it will handle 1000lb-ft, so that should be good enough for now...
