Clutch recommendation for a near stock LT1
I did search, but every thread I was asking about which clutch to use on a modded car.
I am looking for a fairly cheap <$400 clutch "kit" for my 95 TA. Realistically it will at most get headers and a CAI. By the time I have cash to do serious modding I will probably have another LS1 car or something else. Right now I am just enjoying a nice smooth riding f-body and I want a clutch that will hold good, but feels stock.
I have been looking at the RAM HD, Ram OEM, and the spec stage 1. I am a complete noob to the 6 speed world so please help me out. This is my 4th F-body and my first manual car...it was a long time coming.

My car is modded and I brought a stock vatozone pressure plate and a clutch disk from Mcleod...it drives just like a stock clutch. If you have any plans to mod in the future its best to buy a clutch that will give you room to grow.

It looks like that Autozone kit gets a pretty good rep from what I just searched. I wonder if the clutch disc is any good at all? Like I said mods might include a set of MAC mids and a CAI...but that is it.

Our SPEC Stage 1 provides a great increase in performance over the stock unit. Of course, if you plan to go bigger and badder in terms of power/torque in the future you could opt for another of our 7 stages. Let me know your long-term plans and I will be happy to provide a recomendation. Thanks,
