What pressure plate are you using? If it's stock, your clutch choice may not be the problem. On Stg 4 9000 aeros (300+hp/350tq) they use the stock clutch with an uprated sachs pressure plate and it holds quite nicely.
You should be talking to 900aero about converting to a 9000 assembly...even the stock 9000 set-up is designed to take much more torque than the 900.
Also you are way past 'added tranny danger' your slipping clutch is the only thing keeping it together at this point. You should be planning on a 4spd and tranny cooler or at least a cry treated 5spd. There is no sense in taking the time and effort to get a proper clutch/pressure plate that can hold the torque, when you are GAURANTEED to turn your gears into a pile of metal shavings.
