Southbend should have one for your application or they should be able to build one. If not I think Centerforce offers a heavier one for that application.

You try Valair?

Do you need a performance clutch or just a replacement? For the LuK clutch try Carolina clutch

Manufacturer: LuK Inc
SKU: 110832 Part No: 04-231

Who did you talk to at SB? The 8.1 clutch and PP should be essentially identical to the single disk DMax unit. The only difference should be the flywheel. Clutches aren't rocket science, and it's what they do. I had them build me a clutch for my Cummins with a 1-1/2" 10 spline center. I had it at my doorstep in a week.
