Centerforce DF has my vote. Hold a lot of torque and is easy on the left leg. It also isn't just in or out like some clutches.

centerforce, or if you have the extra coin laying around a mcleod street twin but in reality, centerforce df clutch will be awesome for you.

i say a ram powergrip or powergrip hd. i bougt a ram hdx and the quality is awesome. grips like you wouldnt believe but i think the hdx is not strong enough to last long on your application.

I would go centerforce. That is what I would put in mine if I didn't need a twin disk. The mcleod is way over board for anyone on a stock bottom end.

I will never put a ram clutch in my car again the one I had lasted 2200 miles from the previous owner, 1100 miles home and 150 miles once I got it home so a woppin 3500 miles max.

I believe the King Cobra clutch is for the T45 tranny. In the 03 you have now, you have a 3650 tranny. I don't believe it will work regardless.
