Can the stock clutch handle the Kenne Bell 6 or 9PSI kit?

My car is a weekend cruiser, so I won't be heavily abusing it, but I do drive hard.

Not drag racing, but definitly son't want any clutch slip on full throttle runs.

No problems thus far. Although I'm considering upgrading the clutch in the near future.

I don't have any problems yet, but I do plan on upgrading soon.

I don't right now but with all the power, it makes me wonder if it is slipping at least a little and I just don't feel it. It hooks up fine for the moment, but I know that the stock clutch will not handle this much power for a long time.

I had to switch to a Centerforce, because the stock on my T-45 was slipping. I dont drive at the track, but I do drive hard on the road.

No problems/slipping so far (KB has been on since early May)....but I expect it will give out sooner rather than later.

I want to tackle the blower install myself, but have never done a clutch.

Is changing a clutch a big deal, or is is pretty straight forward?

say bye bye to your stocker. You never know what potential your supercharged car has until you get a great gripping clutch and a set of nice tires.
