SPEC clutches are supposed to be the best. there are different level's depending on how much power you have. my buddy has a 475+ 351w in his mustang and thats what he went with a spec clutch. he hasnt drove it yet, but he did do a lot of research on it and that was his best choice. hope this helps.

I put a SPEC in mine, a stage II. It seems to do pretty well, a bit more difficult to drive than a stock clutch, but that's to be expected. I almost went with the stage 3, but several people warned me away from it, saying it was very grabby, and difficult to drive on the street.

was there any cutting of the console to do this swap?
does the shifter line up to the the same area as the T-5?
