Hey guys, I'm going to be replacing my CSC with the Zspeed HD CSC and am looking to also replace my clutch/flywheel while the transmission is open. I've looked around the forums on this site as well as a few others and have narrowed my choices down to either the Southbend stage 2 daily kit with either the 19lb Steel flywheel or the 14.5lb aluminum flywheel (I'm leaning towards going with the aluminum one) OR the JWT HD clutch/flywheel (15.4lb flywheel). I have full bolt-ons with 4.08 gears and am looking for the best performance (acceleration) and reliability. I dont really track the car, but i want whichever set-up I go with to be able to handle a track day if I decide to do one. Any experience/advice would be GREATLY appreciated!
