I like my centerforce dual friction.
I made the mistake of getting the stock replacement disk with the dual friction pressure plate, not knowing you cant buy the dual friction disk seperately, it lasted less than a year, and about 50, 13 second passes, and 10, 12 second passes before it started slipping.

I have no complaints about the Ford Racing kit I put in.

most aftermarket ones are good, just make sure you break it in properly.

I dunno about spec clutches... I asked the guys at g-force tranny what they suggested for a clutch since i was thinking about getting their t-5 upgrade/rebuild kit and they told me anything BUT Spec.
