Clutch and flywheel questions??

I'm about ready to buy a new clutch. I have been leaning toward the McLeod RXT and also the street slayer. While looking at the McLeod I saw a very cheap price and realized it didn't include flywheel. It says to be used with existing flywheel. I like the lower price but I don't want to do it over again either. What are the pros and cons of using stock flywheel vs the billet steel offered in their "kit" version.

I don't think the RXT will fit the OEM flywheel. Sounds like your seeing a replacement clutch if you already have their flywheel. Check out monster Clutches as well, good quality and great customer support.

Mine came with its own flywheel. I dont think it will fit the stock one. U dont want to use a ceramic clutch on a stock iron flywheel anyway it will eat into it.

You can buy it with it's own flywheel which would be the smarter move. Definitely go with the lightweight aluminum flywheel. It'll make a huge difference.
