Default Best clutch for 600ft/lbs

I have a Spec stage III, and the last day at the track the clutch stuck to the Flywheel. We broke it loose and made 2x11 second passes but it will probably need replacing this year. What should I go with?

They are both similar in price, which flywheel? Stock, Fidanza? Aluminum or steel?

Go with the Billet steel. Tex has discontinued their aluminum flywheel.

Mcleod or the text. I like the text. Get the billet stell for drag racing applications aka high clutch dumps. Alumium post of the time is not best suited for that.

I stuck my clutch ealier this year, and now it is slipping as well. I'll be upgrading to the Exo-Skel.
