Default Clutch?

ok...the clutch in my stang is going fast. Its hard to shift, wants to grind a lot, and it wont shift out of gear easily. Just curious, but is there any particular brand thats recommended...or should i just head up to autozone and get whatever.

Thanks in advance,

Centerforce dual friction is a real nice unit.

If you need something a little cheaper you can get FRPP's Heavy duty clutch or the King Cobra. Both for under 200. They are great clutches but require more pedal effort.
