Centerforce Dual Friction or DFX?

Both are good. I have used Dual Frictions in all my cars. 96 Cobra...400+RWHP....95GT 400+RWHP...and my 91 notch 225FWHP. All cars are great with this clutch. Easy pedal effort, and good holding power.

Oh...man I think my sig is messed up....see I used to think they were the same clutches. I thought the CFDX was short for "dual friction" Since reading your thread now I know they are different.....I have the Dual Frictions...and love them. I will change my sig now...thanks..

I would contact Centerforce and see what they say about it.

I would not bet on a Dual Friction holding 600 hp.

I believe the DFX is lighter, if I recall.

Here is the descripton of the DFX from Centerforce:

The DFX line is the latest series of performance clutches from Centerforce. Centerforce is proud to announce DFX as their competition-proven clutch package for select import and domestic applications. This new DFX series is engineered for competition standards of quality and craftsmanship. The DFX series is aimed at high-end applications that continually demand increased integrity and holding-capacity. DFX scores big, not only with holding-capacity and strength, but also provides some of the best drivability from a race-inspired clutch. DFX retains an easy pedal effort, thanks to Centerforce’s patented ball bearing actuated diaphragm, for smooth engagements without detriment to the vehicle’s release components. The Centerforce DFX performance clutch system utilizes Nodular Iron pressure plate rings and reinforcements designed to help prevent drive strap breakage and safety. The DFX series allows the end user to tailor the performance and style of driving with different choices of clutches and clutch discs: From street/strip to full-on drag racing capability.

Maybe you could make a quick call to them and they could give you some quick answers

Here is the part numbers that I have:

Centerforce Stage I Pressure Plate (30%) - CF-360048
Centerforce Stage II Pressure Plate (60% more holding power) - CFT-360048
Centerforce Stage I Pressure Plate for 93-95 Cobra - CF-360057
Centerforce Stage II Pressure Plate for 93-95 Cobra - CFT-360057
Centerforce Clutch Disc for Stage I/II Pressure Plate - CTF-381021
Centerforce Dual Friction Clutch for 86-93 (90% more holding power) - CTF-DF021048
Centerforce Dual Friction for 93-95 Cobra (Fits 86-95 but has more clamping force) - CTF-DF021057
Centerforce DFX series for 86-95 (Lightweight Centerforce Clutch Disc) - CTF-LM021057

There is a light metal clutch series too, hmm...

I had a Dual Friction in my car that had 400RWHP and it was great, but I don't think that I would put it behind something with 600RWHP. Definitely call Center Force and get their opinion.
