I do appreciate you trying to help
The luck is also appreciated, I am sure I can use all I can get!!!
What kind of dual friction clutch is that? So it's kevlar puck on the clutch side and organic disk on the flywheel side? Thats a very interesting concept.

And you welcome on the luck. Everyone who owns a dsm needs all that they can get.

Yup that is correct, It is a custom disc made by a very close friend of mine.

Miguel that used to work at Bay city clutch felt that there was no way that a normal 2900 would stand up to the amount of torque that my car would make on a consistant basis.

So hopefully it works for me, Last time the car ran, by my tuners calculations on the 35r at 32psi he came up with the figure of 587whp. That was on the old cams, turbo and a less serious lower compression bottom end than I currently use. So hopefully it will be what I built it to be.

Thanks Everyone for all the support, and I guess we will see what happens!

So he made this style disc to give my clutch the extra strength it needed for me to enjoy the car for a little before I had to replace it again.

He no longer works there but he showed Joe how to make it. so I can get replacements.
