Putting a LS1 crate motor in my father's Panoz. Have a few options on clutches, don't need anything fancy as it'll only make around 330 rwhp. I have one of these (http://www.allreplacement.com/product/3386) sitting on my work bench right now for $0.00. It's only 2lbs heavier than a Fidanza aluminum unit. I also have an old 2001 Z06 stock pressure plate and disc from an old car.
I was thinking of using them together for a grand total of $0.00, but I'd rather spend the money and do it right/once vs. installing crap.

Thoughts? Internet browsing says:
1. Chromoly is far more prone to warp when heated.
2. Chromoly is more brittle than billet steel or aluminum.
3. Everything off of eBay is 100% garbage.
4. All you guys are fools for buying expensive stuff when it's made in China anyway and I've had no problems with mine.
