Default Clutch for 400lb/ft on 2WD Sapph

My Alcon 6 paddle is now close the rivets. No slip or flywheel marks 😊
Any recommendations? AP 6 paddle?

Thanks
Steve

Found a 6 paddle Helix. My Alcon cover seems fine so I'm tempted to just replace the driven plate.

Helix organic makes it a better drive and will handle that torque

Really? I thought I'd be stuck with a paddle setup.
