Clutch recommendation for power level

So what would be the best clutch recommendation in terms of driveability and power holding for a car with:


BB 35R
Cams
Injectors
Intercooler
Full Catless Exhaust
93 Pump Gas


This car will not be launched as it will be a daily babied driver.
Thanks for the input.

dont you think that a bit over kill though? I was thinking something a little less heavy on the pedal like an ACT HDSS Street clutch.

The things Im bearing in mind

pedal weight
price
drivability

Thanks guys

Dude I went through hell. I would be very honest with you. Get yourself Exedy Twin Plate HD and you are done. Don't touch quartermaster, act ... bla bla bla. Exedy twin Plate and you will enjoy it.

Exedy Twin Plate HD, really is the best option out there. I would put it on a stock car or a car that makes 600whp. It is just a great clutch all around, plus it is rebuildable.

The Exedy twin HD has a near stock pedal feel and is alot lighter than the ACT. Keep in mind the ACT HDSS holds up to 497 ft.lbs. and the Exedy Twin holds more. The drivability will be about the same, they both will clamp If Price is your big concern you can't beat the ACT HDSS, it's what I went with.

With the exedy twin you will have a stock feeling pedal and very good drivability, but its expensive. With the act hd its cheap with decent drivability, but the pedal is heavier than stock.

I have driven evos with both clutches and even though the exedy is the best one I have felt for the money I would buy the act hdss kit with flywheel.

I've had a few customers try cheaper clutches and only wind up replacing them with the exedy twin within a year or two. Good luck with your choice.
