I just bought a light use (under 20k mile) t-3650 and i'm wondering what i should get to supplement it

i am going to get a new throwout bearing just because, but

Clutch, Flywheel, Driveshaft

I want to upgrade the clutch from my stock 80k mile unit while everythings off
I know alot of people like the frpp king cobra and that SPEC doesn't have the best reputation in the industry. Any help between the two??
Centerforce? Ram? Mcleod? Steeda?

Flywheel, resurface or new, Aluminum or steel?

DS, Aluminum or no change?

i'm a spirited driver who occasionally will go to the 1/4, but i'm looking more and more at scca auto X

thanks

Centerforce, McCleod or Spec clutches would work perfectly for you.

The DF, or Stage 3 Spec 6 pucks are some of the best clutches I have seen in modded modulars. If I ever get boost I am def. upgrading to a Spec.

The king Cobra wont fit that tranny.

I would go with a Steel flywheel or stay with stock since you wont be making huge power (for now ).

If money isnt an option, go ahead with the FRPP Aluminum Driveshaft, they arent horribly expensive, and you will be dropping the tranny anyways..

Bullitt clutch FTMFW. Had mine 5 years (3 with the blower) and theres absolutely no slip - and trust me, I'm hard on it.

As for the FRPP DS: http://reviews.stangnet.com/showproduct.php?product=35&cat=2&page=1

Seems to be a fan favorite...

King Cobra Clutch WILL fit the transmission, but not with a 11" flywheel.

any daily driver problems with an AL flywheel?
i found some good deals on clutches at summit, i honestly can't remember if it's an 11" or 10.5'' though

i'm starting to lean towards centerforce now
