Well, glad to see that you have a 3650 tranny. You will need a 11" clutch vs the 10.5" clutch. You can NOT use the King Cobra on your tranny.

I have always had good luck w/ Spec clutches(Spec I would be fine). There is also Centerforce which is also good. I would reccommend either of them in their lightest model for a stockish car.

btw, you prob. arnet 280-300rwhp w/ those mods.

op is probably about 235-240rwhp with the mods that he has. But i would suggest to stay away from the spec 1 because ive heard a few horror stories about just that clutch. never any from the 2 on up but the stage 1 ive heard some really scary stories. Ive never heard anything bad about centerforce. Their stage 1 clutch is freakin awesome!!! it has almost an import clutch feel to it and it holds very well. Probably as easy as my dad's miata clutch or my mom's corolla clutch. So id look into that.

if its the 11" clutch then you should be fine. And if they say it will work, then it should. I said it looks like a king cobra clutch kit...not that it was. just saying it looks almost identical.
