Hays Street 650 clutch question
 
Good day,
I have checked previous post on clutch kits and I can't find anyone with specific experience with Hays 650 11" clutches. Can anybody here shed some light on this topic. Otherwise, Centerforce DFX seems like a good alternative.
I do have a CF dual friction currently on my 455/512hp w/ stock T10. This has been holding up fine with no issues. My concern is which clutch will hold up with the increase output.
Thanks,

A little late answering your post but, Centerforce make some decent clutches, so does Hayes. I would think Centerforce is a better clutch. I run a 11" single disk ACT clutch with 600 hp and torque. Been very good. I tried McLeod dual disc and did not like them. The disc material is what makes or breaks a clutch operation on the street. I've been using organic material. So far so good. Best to use a billet steel flywheel with any clutch for safety. Hayes 13-130

Chuckies76TA,
Thank you for your response. I couldn't find anyone with experience with Hay 650 clutches. I ordered a 11" Centerforce DFX prior to your recommendation. I did order a new Hayes 13-130 as recommended.
Thanks again,
