Hey Guys, just ordered a Spec Stage 3 from MPH. After talking with some people, they said they havent heard anything good about the stage 3, i should have went with a stage 2. I have an 01 GT and have future plans of a Supercharger, anyone chime in with any info on it, thanks.

The thing Ive noticed about Spec is they are great clutches as long as they are set up right. I have seen nothing but great things from the guys at MPH with their use of SPEC, so that leads me to believe that all the problems are installer errors. Maybe thats a naive comment, but I think youll be fine.

Yeah thats basically what one of the ladies said down at MHP, she has it on her Mach and had no problem. So the trouble is finding a good speed shop to put it in. Does it drive wierd during the break in period?

LOL Rhonda has a badass mach. Anyway, I dont have one, but that is one of my choices if I have to buy a new clutch anytime soon.

From what I have heard about the Spec Stage 3 is that it is an awesome clutch, its just that its either in or out, there is no leeway (sp?) with that clutch. Thats just what I have heard from previous owners who have used it, they say its an awesome clutch just not the greatest DD clutch.

yeah i did some research and found that some people when they got the spec stage 3 they, used a different throw out bearing. Get a ford one that is Metal one. Anyone hear that? yeah I wish I lived a little closer to MPH or there was a branch up here is boston. But I trust them.
