Default 2003 COBRA CLUTCH PROBLEM

I need a new clutch for my modified '03 cobra (600rwhp). Should i go with the centerforce DFX or the Spec stage 3i? Is there another I'm not aware exists? The clutch has been a consistent problem since I've had the vehicle. It is very time consuming, since the full length headers were installed, to get to the clutch. I would like to know what's the best option available.

I would go with the DFX over the spec, those are junk from what I have heard. Also, if you have not already done so, you need to get the new bell housing for our tranny that fixes the TOB Guide Tube issue, which needs desparate attention. Also make sure to go to the 26 spline vs. 10 spline. This should buy you a little more time with that beast.

Ive had a hard time finding a dfx for 2003 cobra, believe it or not. whats up with that? who sells it? plus, spec doesnt make the stage 3i anymore. now its the stage 3+. whats the difference? i have a fidanza flywheel. it has a replaceable insert. the flywheel seems to be ok, but im going to replace it anywhy because everytime i don't do everything the damn thing will expose the piece i leave. i use the car on the street, but the strip is next and i don't want the parts to fail. where can i get the dfx? if so, is the fidanza a good match with the dfx?the money is not as important as the performance. what should i do? i want 10's.

You can find all you need at: http://www.lightningforceperformance...ission%20Parts

You can find the fidanza as well as the dfx here. And yes, they are a perfect match. Have you upgraded your input shaft yet to 26 spline? You should find 10s soon with your setup.
