Get the McLeod rebuilt with the 'special' material. Ask them and they'll know. Or get a Tilton triple or quad, that's what the Supras use when they approach 1300+rwhp.

Our original Street Twin with the ceramic disc upgrade will hold that no problem.

Is there anything between the standard organic kevlar street twin discs and the ceramic disc? or just those two disc materials are available?

At the moment the organic/organic is the standard issued disc and then we have the ceramic/ceramic upgrade. Nothing in between at the moment, but who knows we always have friction companies coming to us with the latest and greatest lining.

Monster makes a really nice twin and triple disc setup that would hold that power.

Or you could opt for one of our 4 Super-Twin kits that are available. I would suggest the PT as the minimum option though based on your planned output. This kit uses a carbon-graphite puck, and since I drive one daily I think I am qualified to answer drivability questions, and it is quite easily daily driven. If you have any questions please let me know and I will be happy to assist you. Thanks!

TH400 is the only clutch you'll be happy with in a car with that much power.

It might make his right foot happy, but his left foot will be bored as hell.

Keep the 6-speed.
