either a centerforce dfx or a (ford) king cobra clutch. both will hold up very well.

As lightly mdded as the car is and also if you plan to keep it the way it is for now I would buy a stock replacement or a king cobra clutch. Only reason I say this is why throw money into a clutch because if you start adding big power parts you're gonna need to spend the money on a good clutch then.

I really like the dual friction I have. If you go with it, have summit price match the www.dualfriction.com website to save you a couple of dollars. Summit has them on sale too. (30 summit bucks)

My friendz was mostly stock when he put it in and started hating it right away. He changed it and went centerforce. might not have as much power as your car but I'm going to look into the zoom clutch. Thankz bro
