Default RST/RXT equivalent clutch for LT1 T56

Not sure if its just me but I cant really find any high end clutches for the LT1 T56 setup. I need a 11in clutch, hydraulic TO application, for a 600+ to the crank motor. I looked at Summit, Jegs, and the McLeod site and didn't find anything that caught my eye as equal to the RST. Am I missing it?

I should add its going to be a 93-97' LT1 clutch application with the conversion flywheel I have

Default My buddy Ron just went through

this and ended up with a Centerforce twin disc.

May want to take a look at Spec and Monster as well.

Thanks, did he say how he liked it? What kind of power was he making?

I have a spec 3 clutch with alum flywheel. Its a bitch in traffic.

I have been asking centerforce to make a DYAD clutch for this set up and they blow me off.

McLeod makes a standard twin disc for the LT1. Would handle your power no problem with organic discs and has perfect driveability.
