I bought a FRPP King Cobra Clutch and i love it. It grabs nice and not to stick for a daily driver.

I like the Spec clutches. Stage 1&3 feel identical to me.

We recommend the Spec cluthces as well. Per the sticky at the top of the forum, we have a 10% off special for Mustang Forum members on right now. Just email us at sales@fasttoys.net or call us with your application for a quote. They have 5 different stages to suit just about any type of use. Stage 1-3 are for the street and 4 and 5 are race only.

Thanks!

The install was a whole day job(8hrs), I did have a lift that my car was on when i did it, so that made it a little. But the hardest part was those damn starter bolts. If you are going to do it yourself i would say buy a could cases of bud light and have a buddy or two come over and help.

The Stage 3's will have some chatter upon intial engagement, especially when cold. If you want better drivability, you can go with a Stage 2, 2+ or even a stage 3+ depending on your HP levels.
