Im making 336whp and my present clutch was good for 300 and it slipped a few time last summer a few times when i got my foot into it... I wont a good brand of clutch the is good for 400 but a full disk clutch... Cause ive driven some cars with six or four pack clutch, and its soooo on or off grip..

ACT, they wont break your wallet, and order from him:

Also depending if you get a sprung or unsprung clutch will determine how forgiving the clutch is. I have a 6 puck sprung, honestly its a pretty easy clutch to use.

Clutches are rated by torque capacity, not HP

Hated my clutchnet, it never grabbed well and required me to ride it a bit for it to do so resulting in it wearing quite fast.

I went with the Heavy Duty Pressure Plate and Heavy Duty Sprung 6-Puck Clutch.
This setup had been great and Im really liking it. Ive had no chatter with it like many claim.

i just have a HD pressure plate. 463lb ft holding capacity should be plenty for my power goals.

I'M running a Center Force Dual Friction clutch, its pretty good as of right now still breaking it in, but we'll see how that goes in a few hundred miles or so when I start putting the pedal to the metal LOL

P.S. sucks to see your achilles heel like that, I sprung mine playing basketball it wasnt as bad as yours but I couldn't apply pressure on it for weeks get well soon man.
