Centerforce dual friction clutch- TR 224 cam, headers, full bolt ons-lasted about 3 weeks after cam went in. (held up a year before that)

Centerforce DFX clutch -Single plane setup, high reving 346w/ 500rwhp---lasted about 3 track passes until it came apart and destroyed my block. Drove fine on the street, and dyno, would not take severe launch.

I have the dual frickin in my car and i have 460 to the wheels and i am lunching at 5000rpm. not problem with it. but the problem i am having is going into 2nd and 3rd,very hard what do you think, new slave from tick cause the cluth is good just the shifting.I am losing a .5 off my et I think.Last week i ran 1244 at 116mph and i have alot done to the car.stage 3 h/c so its got to be the shifting becasue livernois said it shoud run 1180's all day.

YEA... YOUR TIMES ARE LOW FOR THE POWER YOUR MAKING. MY FREIND DOES TRANS FOR A LIVING TOLD ME IF I WAS STILL HAVING PROBLEMS WITH SHIFTING AT HIGH RPM'S TO DO THE DRILL MOD ON THE MASTER CYLINDER LINE AND THAT WILL FIX THE PROB... SO IM GONNA WAIT TILL I BREAK IN MY CLUTCH AND THEN I WILL TEST AND SEE.... GOOD LUCK AM IM SURE YOU WILL SEE THE 11's SOON>>

Its just one of things where you have to play with it... I know my buddies ta after cf clutch and built t56 still wouldnt shift out around 6,500 rpm's and we yanked the m/c off and drilled out the line and then he could row the gears.... Do u have stock m/c? Or do u have tick??
