The z1 road race kit will not work with the cmak, it has a odd ball pressure plate and uses an altima stock rigid clutch disk (very loud rattle in every gear under 2500) and is 240mm. The clutch sets up way to high and will hit the fork on the cmak kit.

We do not make 14lb steel flys as the only way to make them that light is to take away the thickness behind the disk where it needs it most for heat dissipation and strength.

The super street kit has a really strong exedy "racing ultra fiber" disk (not stock organic) 250mm, and 2700lb pressure plate, fly is 17.4 lbs and the pressure plate is a few pounds light than the one in the z1 kit so it will about even out and you will have really good setup.
This kit is somewhat aggressive and very accurate.

So back to the Zspeed stage 3 kit maybe. It's roughly the same rotational mass as going with the Z1 kit. Or stay with the 14lb FW and pair it with Joes clutch for an even lighter combo. I'll have to drink this over for a day or 2.

Rusty, Since the Z1 FW is in your sights do you have any heat concerns. I know you'll run your car much longer and harder than I probably ever will.

The page says 18 but Joe says 17.4. I was just going off their site but it is lighter than they advertise.
