I've seen some pics of Centerforces coming apart. Come to think of it, first time bitemark46 had his car at the track with his Centerforce, it started to slip and burn the clutch disc on his burnout. Last time I talked to him he was talking about getting a SPEC clutch also. Honestly I don't think I will ever buy another clutch product that isn't a SPEC product. Everyone who has bought a SPEC for their Mustang that I know has never said anything negative about it.

Scott, 500hp car get either a kelvar or carbon fiber disk. The pressure plates are still made out of the same material. Well come to think of it since u don't come out hard anyways get a zoom clutch! It'll work for 2000rpm launches!

I'll vote for SPEC stage 3. They are probably the best bet, but beware alot of guys are having problems in various applications. F body guys, 5.0 guys and T2.3 guys have had early failures with them, while some last forever with nothing but praise from the owners.
