KLZE clutch options

Engine is on its way and just wondering which clutch would be the best choice to go along with the horsepower of the engine. And will a stock mx-3 flywheel hold up to the power also?
Thanks.

Flywheel will need resurfaced but is fine. And you will need a Stage 1 ACT Clutch or Clutchmasters or similar.

The Mx-3 flywheel will no problem. As for the Mx-3clutch, nope, unless you take it really, really easy. Even an OEM Probe/Mx-6/626 clutch doesn't work well in the long run. Also stay away from those eBay special no-name cluthes. There'a farily recent thread on it, but basically, ACT, Clutchmaster, Centerforce, Exedy, Bully and probably a few others are the clutches that will do the job reliably

The flywheel isnt ok to reuse and wont hold up to the power??
You will deffinatly need at least a Stage 1 clutch from any of the companys Nd4SpdSe listed and deffinatly stay away from the eBay clutches.

surely you're talking about clutches Nd4SpdSe?
I've never heard of anyone having trouble using their k8 flywheel. Infact many probe/mx6 owners buy our 16lb flywheel as a lightened upgrade to the KL 21lb flywheel. You will need it resurfaced (skimmed flat) as you would/should everytime you clutch change.
My SPEC clutch seems decent so far too. I think I bought from
http://www.clutchcityonline.com/, but that was the best for me being in the UK with international shipping.

Ya, sorry, I meant clutches...flywheel no problem at all. It's actually common for Probe/Mx-6 owners to switch to the lighter Mx-3 clutch. My bad, sorry
