Default clutch question (which to get)

just now getting my promotion t5 (this thread is not about the transmission lol)... Just wondering if this clutch will work with it and my 5.0(5.4)

http://www.jegs.com/i/Centerforce/183/DF161057/10002/-1

And it says I have to get the centerforce throwout bearing, or could I get the ford racing one?

I was going to get a clutch cable kit too The steeda one.

Thanks alot!!

Or would the HD king cobra clutch be better? (im leaning towards this one, and i want a stiff pedal, i think its what i origoanlly had)
Ford Racing M-7560-C302N

okay, so that one in the link will work? because it says aftermarket transmissions only.

Just wondering. sorry, i just want to make super sure before i buy hundreds of dollars worth of stuff...

will that centerforce hold up good? does it have a stiff feel? Its not like a stock replacement is it?

as much as I dont like CF clutches, if thats your only option, that what you should run. I'd never run a king cobra.

centerforce is designed with it's patented weight system to give an easier pedal, why would you want a stiff pedal?? it has to give somewhere, meaning all the stress, which is often at the firewall, I have welded up more than one firewall because of such..... good luck
