Denis,

The LT-1Q uses an uprated 5000TQ clutch from Kennedy Eng and a standard
5000TQ disk.  Supposed to be good to 400 ft/lb of torque.  I did have
a diaphram failure after two years (and a few track events ;-) and they
repaired it for free!  You might like to check with Kennedy and see if
they have something suitable.  They have a clutch press so you may be
able to send them a stock unit and have it uprated.
