I was over 350 HP with the stocker and never was able to really slip it...but it was used up when I had to do a tranny change at 140k so I went with a SB...

At 400+hp, I didn't think it was slipping at all.......until I took it out and noticed it was blue from all the heat. Sometimes things only slip a little and get really hot.
The SB 3850 DD takes care of things now.

My truck did 390/918 on the stock clutch (suspiciously overcorrected numbers, but still...).
Mine sorta felt like it was slipping, but when I yanked it to put in the FE, there was no evidence of overheating..
It would hold enough to push my stock charger to 38psi..

Mine will slip if you matt it in 4th or 5th right off the hop,but if you gradually bring it up I can still get 45 psi out of a stock turbo.All I have is a smarty and drag comp.But it has gotten worse gradually and doesnt hold like it used to.Im probably at 330 hp

I got up to 370hp and 839tq on the stocker it held pretty good, it slipped a few times in 5th when i pushed it. I was pretty nice to it because i know it was on borrowed time.

Your not supposed to talk about them on here But I got mine from valair. Alot of people use southbend on here but I am tight with money and they are pricey.
I've got some pics in my profile I don;t have updated one's right now. I wish I had the leather seats like yours.
