Default Prices on clutch and alum flywheel.

I think my 37,000 miles of abusive driving is starting to take its toll on my stock clutch. When I take off from first with anything more than a moderate amount of gas, the car falls flat on it's face for a second after releasing the clutch and then grabs and starts to take off. Where can I get a good price on a performance clutch and an aluminum flywheel? Also what are the different brands? I've seen Ram and Centerforce in my Brothers Performance catalog. Are there any others? The sad thing is that I was going to spend my summer money on a Bullitt suspension. Now I have to buy a damn clutch!

Forget the aluminum flywheel, buy a stock one or have yours resurfaced if its ok, and a KingCobra clutch you will save some big bucks and the King Cobra is a great clutch for the mods you have.

I'd go for the flywheel. Saves weight, increases performance, and you'll have the thing disassembled already. Kill 2 birds with one stone.

jdsperformance.com has the best price on spec aluminum flywheels, but they sent me the wrong one so i had to get the right one from spec (free exchange). but i still have the flywheel sitting in my room. i have a spec clutch in my car, but they are kinda expensive, i think ram sells the cheapest clutch for a v6.

Well, it's been over 3 days since I thought my clutch was going out and the car is acting fine so it must have been in my head or something. I was looking at the aluminum flywheels and my jaw dropped when I saw the price on those things. $400! I mean, damn, I only want to buy one!
