i'm going to be using a ford motorsport clutch, i installed one in my 88 i had and i never had any problems accept for the stock cable getting stretched so i switched to a adjustable cable setup.

i just use a factory replacement clutch...make your clutch your weak link. it's much cheaper to replace a broken clutch than a busted tranny.

I'm on my second Centerforce dual friction clutch on the car, through no fault of the clutch but rather a completely amateur installation of the alluminum flywheel the first time.

Great clutch, grabs like crazy. Stock clutch always felt like it never grabbed hard and was always slipping if you were trying to launch.

I have a SPEC stage 1 right now. Pretty comfortable on the street and grabs well too. However, I think it might be slipping a little. Once the rear end is installed this weekend I'm sure I'll find out for sure. I have a SPEC Stage 2 sitting at home just in case.

I put a Motorsport clutch [not the King Cobra] in my LX in 2002, and its seen nitrous all through 2002, and 2003 was stock motor but slicks and 5000 RPM launches on the street and track, and 2004 was same conditions as '03 but with about 90 more HP on motor It's still hangin in, and i've put roughly 20000 Kms on it too... i'll buy another one.

I gotta get a clutch for the SVO cause I have Draglites and ET Streets on now, and no way the stock clutch is gonna last long with a 2 step leaving at 4500 and 10+ PSI.
