i have a cam, headers, 150 shot, and my clutch just blew out 1 week ago. I had the clutch for prob 15,000 miles or so. Just ordered a good RAM setup, hopefully it will hold.

Local guy down here runs the Z06 clutch with heads and cam. He hits high 11's with it, so you should be good.

My Z06 clutch (5000 miles on it) lasted a few times to the 1/8 mile track but it died the first time I hot lapped it in the 1/4 with 400rwhp. It still worked ok but it would stick to the floor and just slide into 4th 1/2 the time. Didnt look too great when I pulled it out either..

yeah, i run mid to high 11's on mine but I do run into the problem of it sticking to the floor, give it a few good pumps, and your back in the game.

Thanks for your help guys. I am going to go with a nitrous kit, but now I just need to find the kit I like.

Thanks
