Default buy aftermarket or go stock

well i was reading my owners manual and realised.... i got a 100K powertrain warenty, this coveres the clutch correct?

for $100 deductable i can get a new OEM clutch. or for $500 i can go spec stage 2.

for my car ( soon to have JLT CAI and bama 93 race tune )

would it be wise to get the OEM replaced fro 100 bucks and have alot of fun with it, or go ahead and get a spec in there?

keep in mind im laid off.

then when i get back to work, and i run this clutch down, buy the spec?

The clutch is not covered under the factory drivetrain warranty.

When I replace mine I'm going with a SPEC clutch instead of the Ford replacement.
