Cluch for SC camaro

I have a 95 camaro z28 superchrged, has 527 hp and 529 tq to rear wheels.
On ebay they have a spec clutch unit that says good for 800 lb ft tq., it,s a spec stage 3,stock clutch slipping bad.
Would this unit hold the power,your opinion would be great.

I have a 97ss 383ci with ATI D1, MM6 trans with a Moser_12. I have been using a Spec 3. It holds the torque. I am on my second disc. I also use and ALum flywheel. At times the clutch actuator rod may need to be shortened or lengthened due to mfg tollerances. I have not had this problem, but some of my fellow F_body owners have. Also, I have seen some reports that there are line restrictors in the stock hyd line that can cause slow clutch engagement response. Some have drilled the restriction to a larger size. HTH B.

Thank you Slomarao,i,am trying to figure what cam and best heads to go with to make 600 or more to the wheels.Heads and cam where from Agostino racing engines,cam not a blower cam and heads i don,t think they flow much better than stock,this clutch unit should handle 600 or more to wheels.
Thank you ClARY

Air flow is everything. I currently use AFR 190 heads on 383ci. The D1 intake and delivery duct air flow is important. I have converted it to hard pipe 4" intake and 3 1/2 manifold delivery. I also struggled with the exhaust as this was also a restriction to air flow. I am currently on my 4th cam. Cam Motion blower grind 231/240 - .530/.580" - 114 lsa 110*CL. It makes max power about 6800 rpm. I also run an afr rev kit that I really like. B. (97ss 383ci D1 MM6)
