Stock drivetrain power
How much RWHP can the stock clutch and drivetrain tolerate in a 98 c5 with a 6spd, 70k miles with street tires, may drag race 3-4 times a year?
Currently dyno at 340 RWHP, and I am thinking about doing a cam install.
Thanks for all the help, Atlas

The stock clutch on an LS1 is not really good past 400bhp, not 400rwhp. The LS6 clutches hold up better than the LS1 clutches but I wouldn't do heavy mods and stay with the stock clutch.
