Clutch help!!!!

[bergsvette]

Ok the story goes, I set the throw out bearing to the wrong distance and may have roasted my clutch. It would slip while in the gas hard or anytime over 3500rpm. I will be taking the car apart in a couple of weeks to fix the issue. Now in the event that I did glaze it like a doughnut what clutch would you reccomend? I have read as many of the posts on here as I could find but it seems that most people with this question are running LS motors. The clutch in it now is an 11" Mcleod, one of the cheaper ones from summit.

I am running a 454 with a T56 Magnum. The motor was not dyno'ed but we are guessing it makes around 450hp and close that in Tq. It also has a 12 bolt with 4.11 posi.



Thanks alot for the help folks!

X2 on the RST - It's a great clutch with a large amount of capacity. I recommend it but please sit down for the sticker price.
