Default Which clutch kit?

I blew my clutch yesterday and I am wondering which lit is best. I only have LTs and magnaflow with a frost tune. I am just looking for something with good grip and drive ability. I looked at the spec stage 2, centerforce and ram HDX, but after looking on here have seen bad things about all three. I need some opinions.

Thanks, Sean

Over kill is always a good thing with a clutch. Have you considered a slightly more expensive unit like a Textralia or Mcleod rst twin? I think both are around $700 and you wont find anything bad about either one.

I have a centerforce now and it is a piece of crap. It came with the transmission though so I used it. I liked my monster clutch a lot and will get another one when I'm ready to replace this centerforce.

The OP's car is an LSx, unless he changed the front end of his car or the avatar isn't his ride...

We are currently developing a LTx clutch package. So far, we're not happy with what engineers have sent me. I will not release a unit until it meets my standards, we'll keep you guys updated on this forum as we progress.
