Spec II or III
I need this clutch to last at least 50k miles.
Mods in the future are lid, headers, ls6 intake, 150 n20
I already ran it at the track with cutout, ET streets and 75 shot and my stock clutch took a dump on me!
I had a Spec II in my camm'd LT1, it was in there 30k miles and was still holding strong when i sold it!
My? is...is the III too much for a daily driver and how long will each last?

The stage 3 lasted the life of my car....
....that I slid sideways into two other cars. I don't think the clutch was damaged LOL
On a serious note, I get very positive comments about the stage 3 clutch from our customers.

My bf has a spec 3 and I have a spec 2 that I just installed this evening. I like his spec 3, but only for a car that I would drive once a week (as he does). In my opinion I don't enjoy an on/off clutch in the heavy traffic I face on my way to work. The spec 2 is just a hint different over the stock clutch...have yet to race on it but it drives very nice without any chatter.

I'm still trying to understand if the stage III is a on/off clutch.
Some say it chatters, some say it's on/off, some other say it's like the stock...
Does it depends how you install it? How good you can drive a stick? Or are there different qualities under the same name "Spec stage III"?
I ask because I'm planning a tranny swap and I still haven't decided wich clutch.
It should be as close as possible to the stock one and hold the power I'm making.
It's a daily drive and I never go to the track.
keliente: are you happy with the stage II? Theoretically it should be fine with my HP...

I asked just because I see so many different opinions about those Spec clutches. For those saying it's an on/off it's hard for me to understand if it's a lack of driving experience, a bad install / adjustement / line bleeding / ... or if it's a matter of fact that they are harder to drive than a stock.

i don't care about how stock it feels...to be honest i don't like how the stock clutch feels...it feels really really mushy and too weak for me...i like a hard clutch pedal! The only main concern i have is longevity. I need it to last at the very least 30k miles....this will be including daily driving and trips to the strip about once a month!
