    King Cobra if your not going to do alot of racing with it. If you are going to get into racing it, i would use a RAM HD, i have used it in the 2 gts i used to have and liked them very much.

    I know that I'm going to need a clutch sooner or later -I beat on mine 306-6lb boost-
    So every time I see a post on clutches and what works I read it. And I'm going to go with center force I guess they bite like a shark and hold up very nicely and there good for even a daily driver. And everyone says that they are well known for having the lightest pedal pressure of all. $350 (ouch) (ouch) I was going to go with a king cobra but from what I gathered the king cobra is not really made any more and what's out there is someones interpretation of what a King Cobra clutch is. More than one place making the King Cobra clutches -- Correct me if I'm wrong on this--Thanks- So,, I vote center force Lee

    oldfox...I believe you are correct, the last King Cobra clutch that I purchased was made by Valeo, but called the King Cobra. Regardless, I have had several of the King Cobra's or King Fobra's and they have all performed very well including one that held up to a year of mid 11 second passes on ET streets leaving at about 4500 rpms and driving the car back and forth to the track....may have been a freak clutch but I vote King Cobra, great pedal feel, great driveability and from what I have experienced it has held up well.
