Scott, 
Have you tried the AP racing clutch disc (stock size)? Very smooth engagement, claimed increase in torque capacity over stock disc.

I’ve apparently reached beyond the limits of a stock pressure plate and a traditional/organic material clutch disc.  I was getting unacceptable clutch slip at the Kastner Cup initially on the 3-4 and then on the 2-3 shifts, to the point I could not apply full power.  It’s not oil, just heat and power, as the clutch disc has only a few events on it.  I’ve got over 180 hp at the crankshaft.

What sources have you all found for uprated components?  I’m willing to change flywheels.  Should I consider a small diameter, solid center/multi-disc racing clutch?  With the close ratio gears and welded diff, I need to do a fair amount of clutch slip around the paddock, and am also concerned about how the on-off nature of one these might further stress the differential.
