They are GREAT, I have it, good driveablilty with great performance... but I do not think they make them for the 3650... I could be wrong... but they are under $200 almost everywhere.

I don't know who else would offer a good clutch, but when yo udo have it replaced have the flywheel cut too and you will love the performance of it.

yes, the clutch will work smoother and last longer if you do

will you be putting this in yourself?
