650 rwhp which clutch

I know there are several posts but I can find anything very recent and stuff changes year to year. So what'd everyone's opinion on a good clutch for the 650 to possibly 750 some day range? Not interested in spending 2 grand on a clutch! Thanks in advance!

I have the centerforce dyad. Stock feel and hold all my 740rwtq. Did the stock clutch not like the track session tody?

Would you like to have a clutch that drives better than stock and last for years and years and when the thing finally wears out you can rebuild it for about half the price?

Price range like 800, 900, or 1200?

Same boat... I was going to buy a LS2 flywheel and run a Dual friction center force. LS2 flywheel is cheap and the centerforce is under 500.00

the center force lasted on my 96 Lt4 10 years it was a 383 with lingenfelter heads, cam, intakes and vortec T rim.

They really got us by the balls, Thanks GM! They put that dam ridge or flywheel so you cant run a larger clutch for extra clamping force.. So when you buy a Mcloud or any brand 300.00 is wasted to the flywheel in the clutch kit making a 7 or 800 clutch in the 1000s.

If I had $2400 I'd buy the clutch from H.E., but I have kids fixing to drive so I'm limited.
I have NO plans for slicks just occasional burn outs and some rolling starts on the freeway at times from an idiot in lambo or Ferrari..

I agree with Rumbumbee.. I'd recommend the Mantic (ER2/9000) & Mcleod (RXT) brands. Great value for the money with proven applications on the road taking steady abuse. ZR1 crowd is 50/50 split I'd say but for the money you can have a higher rated twin in your car.

Depends what sort of abuse its going to see at that power level.

This is the one I'm thinking about getting when I replace mine. How many miles do you have on it and how hard do you run it.

Thanks for your help.
