I need a clutch HINTHINT MATT (COUPE)

I am going to need a clutch soon. I went to the track and had a few problems with spinning and then clutch slipping. Now I was spraying 250 but when it stopped spinning about third gear and really hooked up then the clutch started slipping. I am wanting a good clutch kit and maybe a fly wheel. Spec being my first choice but which one is the right one for my coupe? I still want it to be streetable

I can say it felt real strong. 250 hits alot harder than 175 but it could be to that I went from a throttle body kit to a plate kit as well.

niiice. You got a good trans. You're 26-spline right?

Stage 3 hard to beat. Hard to kill. Shoot me a PM and we'll talk about it.

It has a tko 500 well I will pull the trans out before I order one through you because I would rather be safe than sorry because I have never had the trans out before to be sure of the splinnes.

I think he will need a better clutch than a stage 3 if he is spraying 250.

Rob's stage 3+ didn't like 550rwtq and I figure Stephen will be a lot higher than that

Stage 2 is probably good to about 475hp at the tires. The stage 3 is rated 680tq. I've seen it hold more. It's conservative.
