Waste of time at the power level you are trying to run . Rod had the same problem and got through three Alcon clutchs in 900miles of setting up (and why he missed TOTB last year) . Only cure is the Reyland twin plate clutch and hydraulic conversion.

Phil,
You really are a true Maddette now, which is not very "gangsta" and "I'll do it my way" is it ?

However, at LEAST you're finally listening to ONE person, so are more likely to succeed with your project .

Mike....ask Mark wether i am listening to him He just giving me titbits of info but ultimately its my final decision as to final spec.....i was gonna just use a 6 paddle .....Beleive me i dont think he agrees with my choice of turbo and desired comp ratio...so if you think this is a MAD engine then you are more gay than you look and if you continue saying it..YOU will obviously not want to drive it as MAD is not SCS and which case Harvey may spit a dummy out

Phil,
Actually, Harvey would even dyno it for you (for a fee ), so that puts the kybosh on that theory .

Dont bother , it will be distorted. The Alcon paddle will not take the abuse you want to give it, my old 570bhp conversion (on Nos) ate them as Mike said one lasted one Launch. It will be cheaper to fit a triple/twin plate now , before it destroys the next one & then the next.
Having a fast car aint about just the engine its about the complete package & it takes time, dont be hasty wait till you can do it proper.
