what clutch to go with?
ok, just got done filling out the paperwork to try to get a loan for a new clutch/transmission...i already know what trans im going with, but want to know what clutch to go w. im looking for something durable obviously and w. minimal slipage...i want to be able to launch at 4k+ w. DRs and it to not burn out... i dont know much about brands of clutches and what not, so yalls input is gonna help alot... and im also not worried about how stiff the pedal is... i have a stock clutch right now, and it doesnt bother me at all, a little stiffer would still be ok if it meant better performance.

RE: ttt
i heard that even though centerforce is a really good clutch there pressure plates will press more with more rpm.. so i guess that you dont get full holding power till you get up in rpm a little bit. i would look into getting a ram clutch kit.. or the king cobra.. just the center force is really expensive.. same with the spec clutches.. ram is a little cheaper price wise.. and.. i think the best bang for the buck out there clutch wise has to be the frpp king cobra.. it's what i got and i love it..really posative feeling feeling clutch.. like.. you know it's grabbing tight when you shift. just my opinion though.
