Default Clutch and lighter flywheel

I need a good clutch to handle around 500 horses. I'm not there yet but hope to build a motor soon. I'm not familiar with good clutches for the T-56 I've always replaced with stock and they don't last long. Also, I wanted to find out more info on replacing the flywheel with a lighter one, and if we have them available. Thanks!

in general a lighter FW is not the best for a street/strip car. some benefit if auto x is your thing

stock replacement FW are cheap at any auto part store F1 racing has a forged on for around $225.

Competition Clutch 2250 is used by many and $300

BLK93, We offer seven different single-disc clutch kits and both steel and aluminum flywheels for this application (I assume you have an LS1). Our kits are rated by torque output and you can find ratings, part numbers and prices on the linl below. Take a look and let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks!
