Default New Clutch...

Hey Everyone, I am going to get another Transmission off a friend and I was thinking while im under the car I should swap out the clutch.
My question is, Im looking at the King Cobra clutch, and im wondering if a new clutch will make any noticable difference? From Stock I mean.
Also will getting a new clutch make it feel like a pulls a lot more?

Im asking this because I just put in my 3.73 Gears and I didnt really feel a big Difference like everyone said I should. I know my tranny is bad so that can be one of the possiblilies why its not grabing as good as it should. But will a clutch really make a Difference?

I installed a centerforce dual friction clutch, pressure plate, and bearings. The car shifts better and there is a noticable differance. At the track it was worth a tenth.

i just put mine in like a month ago.. You can check it out at my domain site page 3 i think..and yes i can tell a difference, my car didn't go sideways in third before.hehe... Yea it just grips a little more, and the clutch ped will be a little stiffer, and a little more spring to the pedal..
