I'm thinking of getting the spec stage 1 or a king cobra..........what do you guys know about them vs. each other. Also whats a good local shop that is cheap for labor on the clutch?

Where can you get the stage two for $200?

The stage 1 has a slightly "better" disc than the king cobra. The hub in the middle is metal instead of plastic. The pressure plate is suppose to be slightly different as well, but nothing major. I doubt you'll notice a difference between the two. Best price I know of for the king cobra clutch is $200 to your door from SummitRacing.com

The only difference between the Spec Stage 1 & stage 2 is the material. The stage 2 has a kevlar disc. So, it'll last ~twice as long.

I never liked my (3) king cobras. Just didn't feel right.

well yea the stage will cost you alittle more but it is goin to last 2times longer than a cobra clutch wich will save on the install price of the clutch which is goin to cost you from 200-300 bucks to have a shop do it for you

Look for "HOLMES88GT" on here somewhere and e-mail him. He has the cheapest labor. Takes him an hour and a half?? Maybe?? If that.
If you cant find his name. Email me, I will call him for you.
