Casey, I feel the transmission and clutch system can handle any HP you can put in the car. But what will happen if someone makes you mad and you forget the HP you have and you want to show off. CenterForce or standard, something will have to give. Better it be the clutch system. Because if you put in a better clutch and it holds then something in the transmission will give. I now have had 3 situations in manual trans where the clutch shaft has broken and striped the gears. PN#103071. Try to find one. Clutches are cheap. Stick with standard and let it be the Weakest Link. John Hervey www.specialTauto.com --- In dmcnews@xxxx, "C. C.

I am curious as to if any of you know what kind of Horsepower and torque the tranny will take, I once heard 275. I am not the pop the clutch at 5,000rpm kind of guy and am very smooth driver so is 300 too much what about 350, and 400? Also, I know I can get a centerforce clutch, what kind of power will that take before it starts to slip? Are there any other clutches you know of. And one last thing, will the chassis be able to cope with this. Thanks in advance. > > Sincerely, Casey at putsch.1@xxxx > > > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
