Save up a little more and get a Spec stage I or stage II, depending on what power level you plan on pushing.

www.fourvalve.com has the best prices and service around. [patriot]

I've had bad luck with Center force [Mad] ..I have a King Cobra(loved it). I'm switching to a SPEC stage 2. to handle a little more horse power. [burnout]

I used to have a king cobra a while back but now I ave a Spec Stage I. It is a nice clutch and when this bad boy decides to go on me (that won't be for a while!) then I am stepping up to a Stage II or even a III depending on how much power I have added by then [Smile] [patriot] [burnout] [burnout] [burnout]
