I'm going to buy a clutch for my setup next. I'm leaning towards the RPS Max Series with a street disc. I just wanted to see what else is out there that might be better. Price isn't TOO much of an issue but longevity is my main focus. I need a clutch that will hold at least 300 lb-ft.

Any clutch that you beat the shit out of and drag daily/weekly will not hold up much past 6 months.

Clutchmasters Stage 3 is great from what Ive seen.
Also there are places that do custom clutches, Kevlar disks (Like the CM stage3) and awesome 1600lbs pressure plates.

I doubt I will be beating on it every day as I will be driving to work and home. On the weekends I probably will though >=] I just wanted to see if someone could recommend a better clutch but from what I hear the RPS is a very good clutch. Would I just be better off going with the AI4-XT00 for the price?

If you want to do some leg work and save some money, check out Bay City Clutches. They can build you just about whatever you want and have done alot of performance work, so they kinda understand whats involved.

Price isn't a #1 on my list but how are their prices?

I run a Clutchmaster Stage 3 with their Flywheel. Great setup, no problems, and excellent drivability, I believe their stage 3 is rated at 450 ft/lbs of torque.

I think I am going to go with an ACT clutch for the price and because they are good clutches.
