Get a centerforce dual friction then. From my personal experice it held up to absolute hell (6krpm+ launches, lots of them) and is 100% streetable. If your going into puck clutches you are going to be in for a hell of a suprise and a lot of chatter.

While your doing this though you might want to look into dropping in a alluminum flywheel as well, since if the clutch install is done properly it will add no real work to the job.

I used centerforce dual friction on my BPT. It couldn't hold up. I switch to ACT. What a difference!! Holds on tight. :wink:
