Default Clutch recommendations.

I'm looking for ideas on Brand and type of clutch to install. I have an 02 WS6 and after a cam install should have 500+ hp at the flywheel. It is a daily driver primarily so smooth engagement is a must, but I don't want to worry about it flying apart. Any thoughts?

I recomened anything but a spec. Its been nothing but problems, and I cant get into gear at high rpms...

Bled the thing about 100x, and the spec rep just tells me my hydrolics are bad when everything is brand new.

I think Im going to go with a LS7 kit next. Just because my car is my daily driver.

G/luck
