if you get a centerforce run the dfx clutch, the dual friction wasnt enough for a 331 h/c/i and 12 psi. Id step up to a spec 2 or 3 if you could afford it. ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)

Don't get me wrong I loved it at first but grew tired of it. clutch pedal was too hard for a daily driver, specially since it's unsprung just on/off gets tiring in traffic. plus I'm sure there's something else out there that grips just as hard but has a softer pedal.

well thanks for all your help. i was thinking about going with zoom, but the clutch they recomended comes with a flywheel. i already bought a fidanza flywheel from d.s.s. so looks like ill be rolling a spec stage 3. ![[burnout]](graemlins/burnout.gif)
