For your 346ci and the amount of power your making, the ls7 would be your best bet.

It will last you a while.

You need at least a double disk, but I'd prefer a triple disk at your power level!

lol!

The LS7 clutch and LS2 flywheel combo is pretty good. I have it in mine and it's held up pretty well. I've seen some other people run it in H/C/I/N02 (LS1) cars and it holds up as well.

Pedal is real soft as well.

Does it always do this? You could try bleeding it and doing a dot4 fluid swap (just uses brake fluid). Also the drill mod for the master cylinder helps (google it). If these don't fix it just get a new master. If that doesn't fix it then the slave is bad, which is a pita to change (might as well change the clutch while you're in there b/c it sits in the bell housing).
