I like my Monster Stage 2. Haven't driven anything else other than an LS7, though, which I wouldn't do in your application.

Going from a spec stage 3 to a monster level 2 was a big difference. Way less leg work and very smooth. Plus they're customer service is great.

The level 2 Monster will work well with your current setup, great on the street and good for ripping gears. Keep in mind, down the road you can upgrade it to a level 3 or 4. Give us a call and we will get you taken care of.

I would highly recommend monster clutch I recently installed a stange 3 in my car and so far I love it it is a little sticky for probably most drivers on the street but I think the two would be a little more street friendly, I have used almost ever single disc clutch on the market in my cars or in customer cars and none of them compare to how much I like the monster
