I have been running a Ram Powergrip clutch for about 9000 miles in my camaro 355 with t-56 and it is starting to slip bad. I am making about 435 HP and will be installing a D1SC procharger over the winter. Does anyone have any good advice on a clutch setup. Mcleod says I need their twin disc setup for $1100 and spec says stage 3 for $535 and Aluminum flywheel for $400 more. I can save about $200 with either of these setups by going to steel flywheel. Or go for the cheap route and hand resurface the pressure plate and have the stock flywheel refaced and just use a new clutch disc (Mcleod $130, SLP $90, and RAM $150). I need some advice..

 

At that power level any good dual-friction (McLeod,Centerforce) should be adaquate. I've been running the McLeod clutch on a centerforce steel flywheel for 2 years with my setup, laying down some rippers, but driving smart on the clutch around town. I just removed the trans (cracked #2 cylinder wall caused some severe damage ) .... the clutch disk is still over 80%

 

The RAM clutch that I have now is equal to the Mcleod and others so I am not sure why I am already having problems. I am going to call Ram on monday and see what they say. I checked on the centerforce flywheel $360 and your clutch is $400. For $100 more I can have the twin disc setup is it worth it???
