Above: A clutch that looks like the OEM clutch will perform similar to the OEM clutch. Manufactures generally refer to this as Stage #1. You can also call this clutch street friendly.



Above: Misinformed members often buy a clutch with a clamping capacity that exceeds their needs. Thinking is that if it can hold say, 400 pounds of torque, than it must be "better." The result will often be an aggressive clutch that is a pain in *** to operate for a daily driver.

NOTE: If you are shopping for a flywheel and clutch, I recommend that you buy a flywheel and clutch from the same manufacture. They are designed and tested to work together.

Also, if you get anything other then a stock clutch you will also need a heavy duty CSC.

Some good info HERE.

When I replace my clutch, I'm gonna go with the Southbend stage 2 clutch/flywheel, HD CSC, and the Wilwood master cylinder. Check out http://www.zspeedperformance.com/main.sc
