As for the hammering on it, the clutch was made to handel the stock power for the cummins, when you doubble the stock output you can't expect it to hold for long. It's not so much the HP that slips the stock clutch ( or any for that matter) its all about the torque

If you don't slip shift speed shift the stocker should hold for a while.

But I was always to the understand that trucks w/ weak clutches will hold up fine IF you hammer it when in gear, and not on take off or when shifting. Just like my old 5.0's trans; was a very weak trans, but when shifted when fully into gear, they would still last a good bit.

You guys gonna jump me when I get there or sumfin? hehe. If you guys [I]really[I] want me to come, maybe i can figure something out for this summer. But no funny business! I know how you kleins roll!
Ya that was my issue when I went out for my first test drive post-fuel plate, I was slipping during shifts. The reason I did that was because my psd's 6spd was so rough on shifts, I had to slip it so the people inside wouldn't break their necks. This cummins shifts way smooth, I just forget I dont need to slip shift it.
