Clutch Swap
What all should be replaced when putting a new clutch in? Throwout bearing? master cylinder? slave cylinder? Pilot bearing?
And I have 150k on my flywheel. It's been resurfaced at least once that I know of. When should a flywheel be replaced?

Youll need a throwout bearing, pilot bearing (get the brass bushing), and a clutch disk. If you plan on using the stock flywheel and pressure plate then get them resurfaced. Your machine shop should be able to tell you if the flywheel is good to resurface again.

Ok, just my 2 cents I would personally get a whole new setup and (Disc, Pressure Plate, and TO Bearing). Ok to get the flywheel resurfaced and probably a good idea to get some new flywheel bolts as well as those have already been torqued down and can't hurt just to throw a new set in there. Any reason why you don't go with a better aftermarket clutch (Centerforce, Ram, etc...)? Good luck and let me know if you have any questions as I just installed mine as well a few months ago.
