[V8] Clutch Choices

[sdewitt at stx.rr.com]

If you have stock components, then stock is the way to go. i wouyld urge against Spec cluthces as after 3 tries for a friend of mines clutch they could not get the right combination for his urq. He ended up saving quite a bit of money for the same components through a firm in Dallas. 
You might alos want to try carolina clutch.
