Good call AB1618, that's what I've got. I can't remember what the model number was, sorry. Other than a little filing to get the flywheel on, it was a pretty easy install. Here's the site if you want to check it out. South Bend Clutch. HTH

Tom, you could have ran alot lower with a stage 3 clutch, takes alot of launches and grabs alot through the gears. btw- are you sure you were making 300lb/tq with the pc-16? thats a nice figure
