[QUOTE="slowr w/o blowr, post: 8198875, member: 65550"] I think that when the clutch decides to come apart, its the luck of the draw as to where its coming out at. My starter took the brunt of the force. Thank you little baby Jesus for that. I understand what you are getting at, thats why i posted up this pic. I was only at 300rwhp when this happened. Jake, Missed 3rd gear on an up-shift. I don't believe that my missing the gear had any thing to do with the clutch coming apart. Yes i did hit the rev limiter, I belive that was somewhere around 7k rpms. This clutch had 700 miles on it when it grenaded. I sent pics up to the engineers in Mich. They had not seen one of their clutches come apart before. They are or were using that same clutch (M7560D46) in the FR-500 race cars at the time. They couldnt believe that a 300 horse car did that. I still have that clutch out in my shop hanging up as a reminder. If you want, i can bring it up to Halls some saturday night for you to see. [/QUOTE]
