Need clutch selection advice
I am putting together a drivetrain for my BDR roller. I have a 351w stroked to 427 c.i. and expect it to put out around 520 hp and 500 lb-ft. I have the new Tremec TKO600 transmission, and I am trying to select the components to go between them. I've pretty much decided on a McLeod safety bellhousing, but I don't know which clutch to get. Ford Motorsports has something they call the King Cobra, part number M-7563-C302. Does anyone know anything about it? Is it a good choice? They also have a clutch disk that they say will work with the new Tremec input shaft. (It has 26 splines instead of the usual 10.) Again, anyone have any opinions?
Finally, if I go with those, what release fork and throwout bearing should I use?
TIA
