I lock my triple-disk up at WOT all the time. I've done it hundreds of times. No issues.
The one thing you may not like is the sharp jerking you sometimes get when it locks, even at light throttle. It even makes my belt squeak. But for racing, it is king. Especially 3rd gear lockup. I'm building a tune that will use lockup in 3rd as a 4th gear, so to speak.

Hey swift you ever locked up at the track? Wanna toss in your .02 over here --> https://www.performancetrucks.net/fo...ock-up-520277/
As far as single vs. multi... i was also on the fence. I think its all personal preference, your build, and how you plan to use it. No real right answer here.
Can you tell us a little more about your truck outside of the HP #'s?

I am not making the kind of power you make but I went from a 278 to a multi 245 and what a difference it makes locking in 3rd. truck pulls WAY harder then it used to.
mine chirps the belt when it locks in OD

It has 4 carbon fiber clutch discs. Almost all the way to the bottom on this page:

Seems they built it to compete with Circle-D.
