South Bend Stage 2 Endurance (formerly aka South Bend Stage 3?), SMF version, rated to hold 425 ft-lbs.

Good luck.

They used to have a stage 4. He might still be able to get it...

My Southbend Stg 2 is broken and in the shop right now, installed Nov 2010, 30,000 hwy miles, pressure plate is broken. Southbend is saying it is out of warrenty, but they want to see pics, guess we will see what they do.

My car has never been to the track and not abused in any way. It does not make even close to the 425ftlb rating.

Between labor and the $535 for the clutch kit, I am out over a $1000 and the car has been in the shop for a week while arguing with Southbend.

Anyone have a recommendation for a pressure plate other than Southbend ??

I slipped the hell out of one of those..... I ended up getting a DC stage 4 clutch...rated for 575 ft/lbs

Mine did not slip and was fine right up until it broke.

I have a DC Stage 3+ and still holds after 3 years and a heavy foot.
