Question 65K and 400+HP on a stock clutch

please don't laugh.

But yes, the car still has the stock clutch installed.

Looking to pick up something different and a little stiffer, I can feel this one slip every now and then.

Any suggestions? Please keep in mind that a larger cam [currently running 226/226 .570/.570 112 LSA] and heads install is in the works within the next year.

Thanks in advance.

I'm pretty sure pat ws6 got banned a while back for being a complete piece of crap and trying to rip people off over those clutches. Here is his profile..

I just recieved my LS7 set up. After doing a lot of reading on the Corvette forums, it seems to be holding to high rwhp numbers. One guy was at 600+ and it was still holding strong.

LS7 is the way to go on your HP level. I have an MS3 car with an LS7 clutch. I have been in a few buddies cars and I cannot stand their heavy *** clutches. The LS7 is as light as stock, but it grabs hard.
