I need to know what clutch can handle 650RWHP? I heard the FORD King Cobra cant handle pass 450 RWHP. This would be going on a T45 tranny. thanks

We're gonna use a SPEC Stage 3 and we're expecting 650rwhp or more from our combo.

I would say SPEC stage 3, maybe even stage 4 but that might be overkill if this is a streetcar.

McLeod street twin, baddest streetable clutch out there. X2C uses this clutch in their record setting 1000 hp GT(8.94 with a fully streetable trans. and clutch). Don't settle for a single disc or a multi puck disc that will chatter on the street.

I have used the MCleod twin disc clutch on several cars with over 500 RWHP and would recommend it.

I dont make that much power but i also run a mcleod clutch in my car. I have had king cobra, ram ans stock clutches in my car and non of them last with hard driving, never had any problems my mcleod. It's an all around great clutch.
