Promotion or mcloud clutch...they are the best. If you have the money go alum. flywheel it makes a world of difference. Most kits should come with a alignment tool (yes you need it). That is to say I have never come across a kit that does not come with an alingment tool but I bet a kit like that exists somewhere.

1a. I would run a KC clutch - I liked it a good bit more than my HD clutch. I seem to recall that you have a pretty stock car - I dont see the need for fancy-schmancy clutches with such a set up.

1b. You can get a quadrant and FWA. I would use the Fiore pieces but they are a little pricier than other stuff.

1c. Depends upon the existing flywheel. You can probably have it turned. A Blanchard grinder is the best means of doing that.


2. Though I have not tried one, I would try an MGW. Or a 5.0 with a Kona handle.

3-5. Up to you. Depends upon smogging in your area, you exact set-up, etc.

Good luck.

The stock non-adjustable cable is best. That's why you need the FWA.

march are nice... they're the only ones i've had, but they are aluminum reducing rotating mass over steel ones, plus i havnt had any charging or cooling issues with them, they are pretty pricey though

Ok yesterday I ordered:
Kc Clutch + alighnment tool
New K&N For CAI
March UD pulleys
3:73's
Rear Main seal

Thanks for the help guys couple more quick ones.

I am going to make another order today:

I wanted to get a new clutch cable and I keep hearing oem is the best. Well went threw how to's and found this ( www.buyfordracing.com sells an OEM cable and clutch fork for $40 – 7553-A302 ). Its listed as an 87-93 part. But I have noticed all the other kits are sold as 79-95. So will this kit fit my car? I am also ordering all new arp bolts for installation.
