I'm at a point where I want to buy the flywheel and clutch kit.

What do you guys recommend?

Thanks,

I never had an issue with LUK, Quality Stuff and priced right!

I've used Centerforce before without any issue (I had the last one laying around from another project). Otherwise, I've been using Luk with good results and it's priced much lower than any of the so called performance brands.

Thanks Tim,

I'm leaning toward the less expensive end of these parts, as I'm just too old school maybe, but paying upwards of $900+ for a flywheel and clutch kit is a bit hard to swallow!

If your planning on any high rpm exhibitions, I'd strongly recommend going with a steel flywheel no matter which clutch you choose. Safety first.
