I have finally decided that I want the McLeod stage 2 clutch. What I was wondering is that they recommend the aluminum flywheel. Do I really need the aluminum flywheel? I can't really afford the 400 bucks that fidanza or McLeod wants for theirs. Secondly, is the Stage 2 enough from McLeod, or should I step it up to the stage 3. I am running 340 RWHP and 360 RWTQ. Thanks for the input. I just need my car running again. Thanks.

Aluminium flywheel is only a recommendation. Resurface your old flywheel at a good performance machine shop and you'll be fine.

Clean the surfaces of flywheel, disk and pressure plate with brake cleaner and when you think it's clean, clean it again after which don't touch any of the surfaces with your fingers. You'll have no chatter problems.

Stage 2 will easily handle 360 RWTQ

I was in the same boat as you last winter.
