Default clutch question

Aloha forum,
I just need to know something. I purchased a new RAM clutch kit and the dimensions are, 11x1 1/16-10. I was told that there it would be a good idea to buy a new flywheel when you buy a new clutch but to my surprise, I cant seem to find any place that sells flywheels for a 98 3.8 ford mustang???? Can someone help me on this one? Also with the dimensions I described, does the flywheel have to be within that size dimensions??? Thank all of you ahead of time for any replies to this thread.

You don't need a new flywheel. Just get your current one resurfaced. All they do is shave it down to take out the hot spots and make it even. Cost is around $25.00 or so.

Remember to mark you flywheel in relation to your position when you take it off. I just mark it with a permanent marker in the 6 o'clock position.......

Aloha shinerstang, damn that was the best feedback yet! I think thats a great way to start a drinking party by atempting to say certain names. I kinda wish you were in Hawaii so that I could take you to some fantastic places and meet some unreal names while drinking some good drinks. Its all about the mustang enthusiasts here in the hawaiian islands. Thanks for being on top shinerstang.
Me ke aloha pumehana............. your friend keneke..
