not sure, but what if you don't powershift?
I have a king cobra with a billet flywheel and I haven't had any problems with powershifting mine or launching. I don't run slicks but I do run drag radials. I have a buddy with a 347 and he launches at 5000 and powershifts with his centerforce and doesn't have any problems either.

yep i powershift without taking out the gas pedal
so dont powershift, its a bad idea really anyway
We build these cars to race them, and run as low of E.T.'s as we can. We build them so we can drive them hard, and if I can't powershift mine, hell I might as well just sell it. Don't powershift it, HA!

Don't powershift.....wtf

i might as well let a grand mother drive the car

hence the term .....granny shift

anyway back on topic.....

i have had good luck with the spec 3.....

i have friend that has a spec 4 and launches @ 8200 rpm.....
Wow you blew out a df centerforce? That's a bad ass clutch, my boy is running one with a 175 shot and so far no prob. I agree with rlg, try the spec 3 and see wut happens.
This thread is almost 3 years old, I wonder whatever happened about it.
LMAO wow I really need to pay attention to these dates, I did't notice this at all. :deadhorse:

I have a Zoom behind my 393 too, and zero problems so far through 57 passes this year.
