Any problem with 750rwhp with a stock clutch
I'm just curious because I'm thinking of buying a six speed instead of an auto. I'm sure my build will be over 750hp closer to 800. I am not going to track the car just a weekend car.

Might hold up for a lil while but everyone I know with upper 600s and up needed to buy a upgraded clutch...

you will still have issues.... if it was N/A in the 550whp maybe 600whp range then it will probably be ok for a while...

You will need to upgrade it.

So you're wondering of the stock clutch will hold almost 1000fwhp? Lol um, no.

I doubt it. But why chance it might as well get a good twin disc and not have to worry about it.

It may hold if your just doing pulls/roll racing but it def wont hold for the track.

Clutches are rated for torque, not horsepower.
