I'm looking to upgrade my stock clutch (~70K on the clock)... where can i find a good setup?
It will be a DD cam and heads car and i would like to know what is the best clutch and flywheel to go with. I'm looking for a kit that has everything i need that will run me ~$400 ---> under that would be optimal if possible. Thanks for your time.
***direct links are more than welcome

Ive heard nothing but bad things about the Centerforce.........and the SPEC is pretty hit or miss...
I went with the Ram HD....so far have no problems.....chatters a little bit but nothing to bad .....i use the car as a DD too....

If you've never heard anything bad about spec just search on this forum........some people have them...love them with no problems.....others put 2500 miles on it and it slips and goes crazy.....springs are prone to falling out as well

i went with a ls7, its nice but it wont take 6K dumps on slicks but if your not doing that its great.
i spent 500 or so for teh clutch and flywheel and master and slave. i would save for a texridila if i where to do it againb

My buddy and I both have Centerforce dual friction in our cars and no problems what so ever .
Mine has over 40 k on it and sees 7-8 trips to the track per year on Nittos.
In addition, I installed a Centerforce DFX in another car a few months ago, (over 500 hp) to the rear wheels and other than a slight chatter , which is to be expected, he is very happy with it.

i bought my 99 Z28 with a spec stage 1. It was nice whill i had it, it blew out with in 5 months of me owning the car. Then i went out and go a spec stage 3 it lasted all of 6 months. Now i have a centerforce and i love it. It holds everything i can throw at it and takes it all, the counter weights make it really nice to drive. Dont get specs there a waste of money.

The more I beat on my textralia at the track the better it feels. 100 degree day, 20 hotlaps? No sweat. I love this thing, and the only issue is low engagement point that you have to work around.

Ah, that's what I hate! But checking their website, it say they retain "near stock pedal travel". What gives? Sounds like a great clutch, do you drive it daliy?
