Just a note on the clutch - I ran the OEM Turbo Sachs 8.5" on my SPG for 2 years and 65,000 miles. Power output was 225hp at the *wheels*. Clutch never slipped, I took it out last week, looks like it has 70% left on it. Do I stoplight race and jam the gears? Obviously not. But you don't NEED Centerforce or kevlar or copper stuff, that is really just for coping with increased clutch ABUSE.
