351 toploader fastest

[xc 460]

My old man is running a Dan Williams internaled Bullnose Toploader from the States in his Customline With a 514 big block in it. We are yet to get a decent pas in because it destroyed the clutch first run. Just had a Clutch built by Mal Wood in Queensland so we will be out to track shortly, Should be interesting to see if it holds up! The car has made 450KW at the wheels on a mild tune so we are not sure how it will go. Fingers Crossed.

LA motors have built plenty of tough toploaders. They are also the David Kee dealer in aust and they are pretty good with clutch set ups as well . Just curious what happend with the clutch.

Impressive results, what does the car weigh, a full street falcon would be harsher on the box than say a Mustang or Capri.
