Default Clutch's shot! Suggestions?

Well it looks like it's time to replace the clutch. I think the attempted burnout that I did a few nights ago used what was left of it. Now, I smell that burning smell constantly so I figured it has to go. I don't want to just take it to the dealer and get a new factory clutch, I'd rather step outside of the box and use an aftermarket one. Any suggestions of clutches out there that won't make my ride miserable? My Mach is basically stock with exhaust/intake so I don't need a clutch that's meant for the 400+ horses out there. Thanks!!

I was thinking something from SPEC but I've heard nothing but good things about King Cobra's clutches I just don't know what stage to go with.

ALright thanks. That would probably fit me best since I wont be in that torque range for a while.
