Full insides with a Viper output shaft should do it.

Wow were you racing when it happened? What clutch were you running?

First things first, get an SFI bellhousing!!!!!!!!! That would have kept the clutch out of your dash and keeps your feet safe! Your transmission isn't the culprit. It just sounds like your clutch just came apart. What clutch was in there? As for a clutch to hold 700hp you may wanna start looking at a twin disc setup.

First off, I super glad you didnt get hurt!!! Maybe you should invest in a quicktime bellhousing so you can keep you legs/feet.

Sounds like the input shaft might have broke. We make a Viperized level 3 build that is good for 750rwtq!!! Check it out on the link

Maybe you should just quit dicking around and install some driver mod in the form of a 4L80e.
