Does it matter which throwout bearing

[knightmare90]

I'm going to replace my throwout bearing next weekend because it's chirping. The clutch on the car is a King Cobra Clutch. Does it matter what Throwout bearing I get? I'm not real experienced in these matters.

Ford ones are great

People assume that autoparts store bearings are no good. The reason is, most autoparts stores sell two grades of bearings. A Chinese one, and a quality one. There are really only a few bearing manufactureres in the world (NTN, SKF, Timken, BCA, and handful of smaller companies), and all the bearings are bought from them and relabeled. For example, Advance carries a Chinese bearing S-614014, for $16 in stock, because most people just buy the cheapest and don't care. However, they can order a National bearing same day for $28, part number 614014. Usually National buys their bearings from NTN in Japan, and they are excellent quality. Just make sure you order the better quality one.
