Clutch Plate for 550-600hp and a TKO-600
I'm looking for advice on a clutch plate for an aluminum FE turning 550-600hp at the crank on a ~2600lb(hopefully) ERA to be driven on the street 95% of the time, minimal track. I'll be using a diaphragm pressure plate, aluminum flywheel, a 3.31 rear end and a TKO-600 trans. Single plate only, no twin disc discussion.
RAM or McLeod pressure plates:
Ram discs - RDX 200/Comp 300/Powergrip/Powergrip HD
McLeod - Series 500/Series 800
I'm wondering, since the cobra is a relatively light car, if I really need the higher grip plates while sacrificing drivability. On the flip side, having the clutch slip because it is overpowered on a good launch would be disappointing. ERA recommends a standard pressure clutch.
Any suggestions?

If you have an ERA and want to be listed, contact me with your info and I'll put it up. The minimum info I need is chassis number and location. The rest is up to you. The most information needed would be: chassis number, body type, city, name, CC nickname, and email address.
