[s-cars] clutch recommendation

Hello all

I realize there has been a few threads on clutches, but I need to ask as I will soon be doing mine.   

I currently have the Luk replacement OEM clutch.   It's been good for 40,000 miles, but it's not really that rugged.   It's taken a beating a few times and held up.. so maybe that means it really is rugged...but it's getting spent and doesn't have nearly the grip it had when new.   

I like what I see on the Spec site.    Any opinions?    
And what about the dual mass flywheel?   Is that what I can feel in the clutch pedal?    Sort of a slight clicking tapping with every rotation of the engine?   Sort of like a failed piston rod bearing.    I've noticed it on every S-Car that I have driven.     Is nixing the dual mass suggested as an upgrade?   

I saw some opinions on Centerforce and also about the failures.   ;-|   Has anyone had a good experience?  They don't still use those ridiculous spinning weights do they?    ;-)    

thanks
-bill
