My clutch is finally starting to go, so I'm looking to upgrade which I usually do when something breaks. I was looking at a centerforce dual friction clutch kit bundled with a fidanza 8bolt aluminum flywheel. The clutch kit comes with the disc, pp, t/o bearing, pilot bearing and alignment tool. Besides the tranny fluid and 10 hours of free time, is there any else I need to change those two things out?

weight of the flywheel? if it's an uber-lightweight one you'll hate it for launches, you've seen the way the FD bogs on the launch, yeah, 8.5 lb flywheel will do that to ya. get yours lightened and resurfaced, i'll talk to you tonight (friday night) about

So, for daily driving a 255rwhp mustang, racing on the weekends, centerforce won't work? 4 puck? Crazy. My fiance has to drive sometimes too haha. I just don't see her driving a 4 puck. I just asked if I needed anything else besides what I listed...
Also I've never replaced a clutch, so 10 hours is probably right, assuming loosening the headers to remove the damn starter.

well I'd like to get something in between stock and pucked. I was looking at SPEC as well until I came across a bundle pack fidanza alum. flywheel and centerforce DF for $583. It still needs to be able to take a beating on the weekends. :)
