Default Bellhousing upgrade

Just got the 9" in, clutch is blown now.. Haven't even gotten the 9" broken in yet!

I figure it's time for a clutch, so I figure what the hell, while I've got it out, getting a Tick M/C and a blow proof bellhousing.

Looking at a couple options.

The only two I see are the Quick Time and McLeod. Of the two, I'm led to believe the QT is the better bellhousing.

However, I don't know about the 11" clutch thing. Seems more difficult to find, and the car is being built for handling, but able to take some abuse at the track.

A) What bellhousing options do I have?

B) What's the best?

C) What difficulties will I have with it?

^^^ what he said. I just installed one on my car about a month ago. With a 11 inch monster but heard a bunch of ppl have no issues with a 12 inch disc with a Quicktime bell. But as far as the install, fit and lined up great. Better than the stock one imo.
