Default what clutch to buy? who has the best deal?

for my 01 trans am. just put a moser 9" in it coming from a spec stage 2 that didn't hold up at the track. wanting something that will hold up to track abuse and still be able to drive every day without issues.
i'm really interested in the new monsters but don't know much about them and am not sure what i should go with.

my mods are a 6.0 with a torquer v.3 cam and 150 of nitrous. so around 500+ hp to the rear and its only gonna go up in the future lol.

who has the best deals right now. looking for the whole works. flywheel to pressure plate. let me know what you think would be best i appreciate the help thanks!

jeremy.

You need to call monster clutch, also here as SNL performance, they have multiple stages for different power levels,, and there are a ton of fellas here running their setups, everything you need (pressure plate, flywheel, clutch, slave cylinder with bearing) and no worries about shimming,, and their customer service is second to NONE.. As soon as their twin comes out I am on it.
Here is their no...817-750-2000 I have gotten some great advice from Steve and they are all good guys up there.

I've heard that centerforce Dual friction 12 inch version is capable of 600 rwhp and only like $400.00
