Centerforce Dual Friction. Works for my 331-sixpack. Handles the extra torque and has less pedal effort than the stock ones.

Depends on what flywheel you're using. Did you update the flywheel and clutch when you put the T5 in, ie, using 10.5 in clutch? Or did you keep the original, most likely a 10"?

That will depend on the flywheel you're running now. The older ones use a Long-style pressure plate, the newer ones a diaphram P/P plate. There's also 2 size clutch discs for small blocks, either a 10.5" or 11", if I'm not mistaken. Call Centerforce and see what they recommend.
