Need to pick a clutch ASAP. Whats the best for 500HP??

Ok, on the generous side my new motor may be putting close to 5 big ones at the crank, and thats makes me a wee bit worried about installing a stock clutch with the new motor. I know the T-5 won't last long (already have a savings setup for my Tremec) but what clutch will take the punishment for at least a year?? Need to order my stuff pretty quick here, parents say they are moving at the beginning of next month and I've still only got the short block together awaiting cam/valvetrain/tin. oh and one other question..........having a 2 piece flywheel doesn't effect anything right??

if you only need it to last a year just about any, if not all, disk will make it.

Well that settles it then I only have enough money left for a stock clutch anyways so I guess I don't really have a choice. Have to spend my last paycheck on the essentials like chromoly 1 piece pushrods, ARP head bolts, and a super victor intake ;p
