Hey guy's i'm having trouble picking on a clutch , Looking for a High quality Clutch , on the soft side , for Daily driving

Came down too these " King Cobra or Spec Stage 1 " ???

The OEM style non-adjustable cable is of good quality. MM is supposed to have a good price on a SN95 cable that's of good quality, but I have not used one.

The KC will probably be more forgiving while driving in traffic (you mentioned something soft).

If you have decent mods, post them up because it will change peoples' opinions.

Good luck.

Same here, go with king cobra, if it was me I would probably just go ahead and replace the flywheel too. But thats just me. The things you dont replace usually go bad.

I had the KC on my old sn and it was soft for traffic and could take an ass whooping. I recommend that one.

Get the King Cobra, OEM cable from www.buyfordracing.com if they offer a 94/95 cable, and just have your stock flywheel resurfaced...no need to replace it. good luck!

How much do they want? People say you don't need a billet flywheel unless you got a lot of mod's. I just bought a stock one for 100 buck's.

I dont know about the prices where yall are, but down here in the Southeast you can get a stock OEM flywheel for 60.00 plus tax directly from ford. But like 5spdGT said you could also have it resurfaced, not sure what that would cost though. Good luck

Get the model cable that matches your car model.

No need to get a billet flywheel unless your packing heat...just stick with the stock one or get yours resurfaced. Around here it is about 30 bucks...
