How much does a clutch install usually run? Mine is about to go out in my 01! Prolly going to go w/ a king cobra.cant beat it for $169 I have been quoted $300 and $350 for labor. Sound about right?
You must be one hell of a driver. I'm seeing stock verts running 14.30's all day long.GTvert01 said:I ran 14.0-14.1 stock

Just make sure you have a shop that has done a bunch of clutches do yours, preferably a shop that knows the SN95. They will likely be more apt to get you what you want.
A lot of people rave over the Centerforce dual friction or Mcleod dual friction...these are a couple other very popular choices you may want to look at as well. You'll need to have the flywheel resurfaced, but this is a normal part of replacing the clutch (hopefully...dbl ck to make sure they are resurfacing it!). Also, be sure a good TOB bearing is also installed.

I guess I was thinking of the SPEC which comes with a plastic TOB...the Ford one should be fine. The stock flywheel (resurfaced) will be fine also, but if you have the money, this would be a good time to replace with a lighter one.Mr GT 02 said:Whats a good Throw-out bearing to use? SO I can reuse my stock flywheel when I get the KC clutch? As long as it gets resurfaced? Again
Mr GT 02 said:I have NEVER seen a stock GT run a 14.1. But, I guess it COULD be possible if you are a AWSOME driver. My best is a 14.6 With my mods being American Thunder catback, and Mac "cold-air" intake into fenderwell.
With the SPEC clutch. You can either HIT or MISS. I must have missed! cause this clutch SUKS! I aint gonna take ANYMORE chances with SPEC.
Imma go with the King cobra next!

Should I leave my clutch stock, 'upgrade' to a KC or SPEC (what stage)?
Or are there any other options out there?
