Default What clutch to get??

I have a 2002 camaro Manual 6-speed and I currently have a centerforce dual friction clutch. This car is my Daily driver and will stay that way but I want to drag it occasionally. I just want the car to be the ultimate street/ strip car (My opinion it’s almost there). I want the ability to pull 1.5, 1.6 60 foots, and my other mods include- Lakewood lca's, sub frame connectors, cromemoly panhard bar, adjustable Edelbrock torque arm, (in the process of having a driveshaft built), 9 inch Moser/ 4.56 gear Detroit locker 35 spline axles, NITROUS EXPRESS KIT (100 SHOT) 502 wrhp 500 ft lbs torque. In the future I my do a couple more bolt ons (fast intake etc...) so I need a clutch built to hold up to 550 rwtq-ish. SO which clutch kit should I get or will the centerforce that I have hold up????

Textralia OZ700.

It holds big power and has a stock pedal feel.

I can't find any site that can tell what the clutches are rated for. Is there no certian number of torque / hp that these clutches will hold, or do you just have to try and see what happens?

They are rated to 700 lb/ft of torque I believe.
