Well I got my T/A to Gomer today, and made 398.8hp before the clutch slipped with 200rpm left in the projected powerband. The clutch went on to go almost completely out on the super tame drive home, with me unable to test my new power =/. Anyway, if I can get a new clutch in by Sunday, I'll be there.

I'm going with the budget-minded LS7. I won't make enough power to come close to it's limit on my N/A 5.7L even after I do heads in a few months.

It was still making power when the clutch slipped at 6200, and it was 9000* in the shop. I figure if it revs all the way up in decent weather I'm at 405hp. And yes, I'm definitely preparing for the rear to blow on me

That'd probably be too much clutch for all the city driving I, and my female friend, do in the car.

the level three isn't a harsh clutch, it's a full disk not a puck style, it drives like stock.no big deal I may end up using it in my chevelle if you dont want it
