my trans came with a hurst shifter. I believe all the clutches are the same, like i got a 26 spline because thats what my trans has, i am using a used flywheel.

It all depends on the quality you want for your car. You can get a clutch from $50 to $1000 dollars.

i got my trans from a local junk yard. the input shaft i believe is the weakest point. i believe that i have an upgraded transmission though since it is a 26 spline rather than a 10.

My personal experience with the T-45 is not that great, I am installing my third one next week....and yes I know how to drive a manual. The first had 80k on it and finally went out, the next rebuilt one I bought was screwed from the get go. So hopefully my next one will work out better.
