If you could get a 1" "scrape" in clay, yes it would take approximately the same effort. A box blade will float with the lay of the land and raise and lower with the hills and valleys. It will perform well in softer soils but try the same tool in clay and you are wasting your time, unless you rip first. Then it is a slow tedious process, moving only small amounts. This is where a dirt pan shines, but it takes a lot of power and traction to pull through clay.
