Re: How much HP will the tranny, cluch, and chassis take??

Casey,
I believe the stock trans will hold 250 hp with out a big problem, 
maybe 300 if you are careful. Good luck getting 400 hp out of our 
cars though. If you do that I know a lot of guys that would come 
asking for your help. This is for the manual transmission. And I 
would think that the upgraded Centerforce would hold as much power as 
the transmission (250 without a problem). Good luck.

performance. 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.
