Default What clutch would you recommend?

Just a full bolt on notch that will probably never see more than 350 crank HP? Have a Motorsport clutch in it now. Any opinions and experiences, both bad and good are appreciated...thanks.

I love my spec stage 2 but the stage 1 would be enough for your build.

I have tried or atleast drove about every clutch set-up out there in the typical aftermarket.

Bang for the buck - King Cobra
Centerforce Stage II or Dual Friction if you got an extra $120.
