My 89 GT is making 510hp and 500ftlbs to the rear wheels. It's a full interior street car with 17" 03 cobra wheels that weighs around 3500lbs with me in it.
I need to put in another clutch and need some input on what guys are using in their cars with similar hp with good results.
When I put the turbo kit on last summer I also put in a Ram Power Grip HD that was supposto be good for 650hp. Well It didn't last 1500 miles and one trip to the drag strip before it finaly let go! It did ok at first but it slowly started slipping here and there with heavy loads, and finaly completly gave up at the strip trying to lauch it.
I've been looking at a couple of the twin disc set-ups, but good lord they are $$$. If that's what it takes then so be it, but I keep reading mag. articles and seeing different stuf on the net with guys running 700hp and single disk clutches.
Sorry for the long post, but any ideas or suggestions will be greatly appreciated!!
