Ram Powergrip HD gets my vote. They are rated for nitrous, so I figured that it can take a procharger's heat on a conservative boost level.

I am very interested in this thread. I'm in the same boat and will also be going F.I. within the year and in the market for a clutch right now ( and a tranny rebuild ). What would you guys recommend for around 600 rwhp.

Textrilla (single/ twin)?

What would be the advantages of going with a twin disk, of any type clutch?
