a standard genuine new clutch will be OK at that level

any decent machine shop can skim a fly wheel, but maybe try halesown engines

paul aka "costina" off here has a standard clutch in his at 350hp with similar torque

but i would want to upgrade with anything over and above that IMO, just for peace of mind more than anything
