STD T5 box is rated to this also I believe.

Car is approx 1000kg. Rest of the drive line supersedes the clutches ability strength wise on paper. 245 rear section rubber
Sounds like a similar spec to my Cortina, I was advised by Harvey Gibbs to use a paddle clutch at 400lbft. I cant see the point of running a normal clutch at its absolute limit.


Paddle clutches aren't really that bad all I would say is seriously consider going hyd makes a huge difference.
