Is this a good idea for my 5.0 with a TKO?

unless you have 600+ hp, why bother with it? Might as well just get a stage 2 or 3.

Spec stage 5 clutch is meant to be used as a slipper type clutch....torque rating of 1100 ft-lbs. What kind of combo are you running?

exactly! I prefer SPEC clutches, but without details on the rest of your set up and how you use the car its hard to give you a reasonably good answer.

I mean...it will work with your TKO so long as its the 26 spline clutch, but it may not really be the right clutch for your needs.

You would be better off going twin disk if your going to drive it on the street....
