Alright guys, my pilot bearing is starting to go and I'm going to just replace the O'Reilley's OEM spec clutch while I'm doing it. My question is, what's the best clutch for my plans between the Exedy Mach 350 Stage 1 (http://m.americanmuscle.com/exedy-mach350-clutch-8695.html) or the Ford Racing performance clutch (http://m.americanmuscle.com/ford-racing-clutch-8601.html) ? Car has stock headers, 2.5" h pipe/catback with no cats, 4.10 gears, and 315s out back. I hope to have coyote swap plans in a few years, so I don't plan on anything more than a CAI and tune in the future.

Thanks!

Hey Mike - That's a good question and given the mods on your car I would shoot for the Exedy Mach 350 Stage 1 Clutch - It's going to have more than enough bite for what's installed on your car and even if you were to theoretically do cams down the road or a Supercharger you'd have just enough!

One of my co-workers here has one on her Pacific Green Cobra and it feels almost just like stock. Granted getting into any aftermarket clutch will feel different it's incredibly close to what it felt like before.

I can see you're well over 50 posts as well so shoot me a PM and I'll get you our discount code!

Hope this helps!

Alex
