I have a 3650 trans for an 01 Mustang with a dual friction centerforce clutch that says the rating is 450+. My engine is getting forged with a d1sc procharger. I am hoping to get around 550 - 620 hp with my other mods. I want to know if my trans and clutch will hold up for a while at that hp rating or do i need to replace it now. I want to replace them but its a budget thing so would rather hold off for a bit. Thanks

anyone?

Thats quite a lot of hp to hold. You should be fine for now. I do know a guy with an 01 Cobra pushing 450ish RWHP on his stock 150k mile TR3650 with a Centerforce clutch.

The 3650 is quite conservatively rated at 360lbft, many people are pushing 500-600lbft through them...

Hey... if you stick with crappy super-hard A/S tires, you will probably never hurt your trans, you be able to do 10,000 ft. burn-outs

i contacted centerforce a while back when i was doing my blower build to see the real torque rating they give for the dual friction clutch since every website i look at (including theirs) either has nothing written, or they all have different numbers. the centerforce tech said they are rated to 600tq at the crank.

If i go over that 600 rating for the centerforce a little do you think i would be in trouble or do the usaully have some lead way.

something is wrong with this post. If you are going to build a 600 rwhp car then you upgrade your tranny, rearend, and suspension accordingly. To your question, I am running a stock tranny and rearend with my car and I am just under 500 rwhp and have 430 lbs of tq with no problems - note I am not tracking my car nor do I have DRs.
