Looking for input on clutches for DD around 300 whp
I'm looking for a good clutch/flywheel that would support 300 whp without a problem. This is probably going to be my first upgrade to the vehicle is prep the drivetrain before power add ons.
I would like some details on your setup and what it cost all together. Thank you.

considering the picture is of a pressure plate i have a feeling it does. most all the clutches you're looking at comes with one. unless it just say clutch disc.

Spec doesnt have the best track record, at least from what I've seen. I've seen a lot of low mileage bent pressure plate fingers and a lot of springs (or the spacers they put in their un-sprung clutches) go flying out of the clutch because they're only held in my thin bent sheet metal rather than the actual thick clutch disk. People keep buying them because it says stage 9000 or other bs and they're cheap.

300whp with an lsj is a quite a bit of motor work, 350whp is a TON for a lsj, lnf guys have usually have to turbo swap to hit 350whp.
besides clutches are not hp, its trq. How much trq are you planning on making? For the regular lsj guy unless you are doing monster tvs build, the spec deal is a good deal/

and still there isnt a TON of guys running around with 350whp TVS'. Seems like the op might stay on the m62 but who knows, but yes you are right, 350 is very do able with a tvs.

you wouldnt consider a tvs (forced induction swap) a major engine mod? haha you confirmed my point
