Hard to beat the ACT, but allot of people are starting to look at the Spec clutches, very well made for the price and you can get up to 750 ft/lbs torque for $850. Check them out here http://specclutch.com/

What's your budget? Daily driver? Final HP goal? There are a lot of details you failed to provide that would impact opinions.

"the Search clutch" - **chuckle** the only people who know about that brand are the ones who watched the movie: http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/posting

If you want to get serious.. get a twin plate don't go for the single plates.. a Quartermaster twin or Exedy twin is your best bet. People often pay for single disk clutches ($500-600) because they are cheaper and they have no choice but if you have a bigger budget a twin disk ($1,500-1,700) is what you want.

ACT Xtreme duty with street disc . and a fidanza lightweight flywheel. I have both of these used and for sale right now if your interested. plenty of material is left on the disc. Only reason I upgraded is because I had to with my new setup. But yeah an xtreme duty would do fine with the setup you plan on running
