It'll handle that plus more. What clutch do you have? Whats your clutch cable and Quadrant setup?

T-45s suck in general. I've heard of a lot of guys having synchro issues with them. What are the problems? Grinding or tough going into gear?

ohh sorry. You need to check your airgap on the clutch. Usually clutch adjustment it what keeps you out at high RPMS.

basically you want soo much room between the TOB and the clutch fingers. I can't remember the specs off the top of my head and I can't remember what the last site that I was on where it was discussed. Any good shop or clutch place should be able to tell you.
