Default which clutch?

Okay i tried the search but people are very vage for some reason. I have a 3500 and lowering pound camaro with a m6, 3" steel ds, and 9" rear with 27 tall slicks. okay i just got done dynoing the car and it make 608 horsepower and 638 torque to the wheels on nitrous with the ram powergrip HD slipping on the dyno. i rev the car to 6800 rpm and when this motor blows i have a new ls2 high compression solid roller motor spinning to 7000 rpm that will hopefully make 600-620 rwhp and then do a 200-250 two stage nitrous shot. car sees maybe 5-7 trips to the track and does not go down the street more than 2 miles if that. to me a prostock car is streetable so i am cool with any clutch. which clutch is the best for me so i never need to change again.

I would look into the twin disk clutches. And no clutch is your last clutch its a wearable part.

Based on the info you provided a Twin would be fine...of course, if you wanted to spend a little less and get something that is still capable of handling your power levels a Stage 5would work too. These units are rated to ~1200lb-ft at the crank. For as little road use as your car sees it would be something worth considering. You can contact an of our dealers for further assistance: T56 Rebuilds/Six Speeds, Inc, WS6 Store, Katech, GMMG, Livernois, etc... Let me knkow if you have any further questions. Thanks!

why does everyone llike the steel flywheel, isnt aluminum better for centrifigal weight.
