Clutch for modded stage 4 hemi

[commonrail]

I'm curious of what clutch will hold the power of a hemi stage 4 OMB kit on a 212cc predator. I've read the kit will net around 12hp and I don't think my max torque clutch will hold that. From what I've read it's only good for around 8hp. Fwiw this is going on a mini bike so it'll be around 95lbs total plus me (215 lbs). I've got a torque converter setup that will go on later down the road but would like to run a centripetal clutch for a while for a comparison.

I also have the same clutch, and it will definitely hold the power but it will require a bit of modifying, take the clutch apart and weld the sprocket splines to the clutch drum, and your next step will be to shorten the spring around the clutch shoes, however your application may not the require this I have a 16hp Briggs and Stratton engine.... But good luck my friend!!!!!

How did the clutch turn out?

I ran into issues with the header and tank relocation setup so I wasn't able to mess with the clutch yet. My welder is still at my parents house so I need to get the header fixed and change up my throttle linkage and put in some 26 lb valve springs before I get the clutch apart.

I would never had thought I'd be spending all this money on a mini bike lol. But it's fun and def worth watching people's face when they ride it for the first time hahaha
