Will my clutch support more mods?
Will my clutch support more mods?
Hey guys whats in my sig is what i've got done to my truck. I wanna do a second gen rad swap here soon intercooler and hx35 eventually but what I wanna know is will my stock clutch support one of dennis's stage II pins as well as a HX35 and intercooler I really don't wanna change that clutch. I have hit 30 pounds boost empty without any slippage so I know it's hold good so far.
Yeah it's in the old rag n I don't like to slip it at all Ive done a few burners but only hitting the brakes slightly once the clutch is out completely n she lights instantly so it hasn't been slipped since I've had it.

I think it's more like 275hp.
My truck doesn't have much done to it and it'd blow right through the sachs clutch in 4th and 5th.
If you do put a clutch in it, put 2nd gen 13" conversion stuff in it. you will pick up #600 of load on the pressure plate which GREATLY increases clamping force

9MM, what size tires do you have?
Stock size, I can see 300 plus because the stock tires will light 1st.
Crossy's Boy has huge 35". Can't really spin those with 250hp so the clutch is going to give.
Plus, Crossy, don't you have a problem with your clutch???

You mean something has to give with a couple hundred hp and with stock size tires it will be the traction first that gives before the clutch?
I wanna put on some 33's but I really couldn't care if she would spin the tires or not I hate buying new tires from wearing them down.

So I'm looking at 200HP stock as it's non intercooled n they apparently if you put em on a engine dyno actually make 200 hp since they have the bigger injectors n all that crap. So if I'm at 200hp from factory the fuel screw gives me what maybe 20 extra horses and a stage twp pin from dennis will give me 30+ hp I'm gonna be looking at close to 240-260 at the crank.
I wanna put on an hx35 which I dunno what games that would give me and and an intercooler I like my right foot so maybe I shouldn't go with the fuel pin unless I go after a bigger clutch which I can not afford at the moment.
Or maybe a M&H M2 pin to keep things somewhat stock on the bottom end with more top end grunt or just a timing spacer?
