Still need to know more about the car. Do you race the car at all? If so are you launching on a street tire or something stickier? Stock replacement is fine for a full bolt on car that doesn't get raced. If you're a regular at the drag strip you might as well spend the money and get something that will hold up better. These guys are 100% right, if the trans is coming out, make sure it goes back in with a billet throw out bearing support and a speed bleeder. The bearing support is a very common failure point, and the speed bleeder will make your clutch hydraulic system maintenance much easier. A remote reservoir is also a worthwhile investment for cars that see any sort of aggressive use.

From my research, if I was going to put a clutch in, it would be a Mcleod RXT. Has a great reputation for both driving nicely and taking all the abuse you can throw at it.
