Clutch Question

With all the mods goin into my car, I never thought about the clutch until today....sig for all the mods

My question is that will the stock clutch be strong enough with all the torque Ill be having?

Re: Clutch Question

my buddy runs a scm60 pushing 399whp and he uses the stocker, it works fine. Some clutches will handle it, some won't, youll find out soon enough.

Re: Clutch Question

Even if the stock clutch handles the power at first, it will ear much faster than a more appropriately sized clutch would. Many poeple go with a 2100 on the FWDs, since you are going slip the tires before you overpower the clutch in most cases, while others prefer the 2600 since it handles the extreme slippage requried by FWD launches a little better, etc. I would continue to use the stocker until it shits the bed, but start researching which one you would up grade to now.
