It doesn't really matter. Any clutch better than stock will do. ****, a stock one would work for just i/h/e and cam. You're not putting a lot more power done so any clutch would work. If you were going with FI or nitrous, you may need a UPPER scale clutch but with the planned mods you mentioned an CM Stage 1 would be fine and it holds 70% better than stock.

if i were you i would go with an aftermarket disc with the stock pressure plate. considering that your stock plate is still good. this setup is really cheap, plus single cam clutches are even cheaper.

how long does the stock clutch usually hold up? I got the car with 103,000 miles and if it still has the original clutch then that sounds like some good ****. the most power my car will probably ever see is about 30 more than stock.

at 103.000 the fingers on the pressure plate are sure to be weak. just replace the whole thing, shouldnt be more than 200 for everything excluding labor.

Just get another stock clutch. Unless you're gonna go FI, a heavy duty pressure plate will go to waste imho

I suggest a stage 1 upgrade... you'll get a slightlt stronger pressure plate witha street disc.
it will grab just a little harder than stock, but will still have a stock feel to it. it wont be more than $200 for the kit.

IM me i have some suggestions on the ACTION clutch kit
