Stock Clutch good for ?hp

So can anyone tell me what hp is the stock clutch/pressure plate good for?
Should be around the 300-325 mark and well need to know if the clutch will hold up well. I did a search but only found info on other clutches.

depending on the mileage of the clutch, you shouldnt last very long with that much power. Mine started to give wtih 2K miles at ~300whp

yes, this is what I was scared of. I am trying to get by but while I have my motor out I guess I will have to upgrade the clutch. I have a ACT PP and Clutch off my other motor I might have to measure it and run that or might even have to buy a new disk.

I would be driving it easy, but would want the wot every now and then.
Thanks, I figured this was the case. Now to sell some parts.......
