Default need a clutch

long story short version

nick williams put a ls7 in my t/a. i have an exedy twin disc clutch. it's starting to slip. it's not holding in high rpm's in 3rd or 4th. made some calls today, and apparently they were rated at 1000hp fly wheel when i bought the clutch, 1 1/2 to 2 years ago. but now are down around 550rwhp. it was ok with the ls1 set up, but not with the ls7.

seems everyone is going textrilia or spec. is there something else i should be looking into that will hold 600 rwhp? i may put a 100 shot on somewhere down the road so clutch needs to be able to support minimum of 725.

i'm hoping someone from spec. might chime in and pm. me a number i can call and talk with someone tomorrow.

thanks for any advice,
rob

I would talk to a sponcer to find clutch that will hold that kind of power. Well reliably I mean.
