Default Clutch gone

Yesterday morning my clutch finally went so i took the tranny out an there was pieces of clutch in the bellhousing. What type of clutch and flywheel should i get? I was thinking about a king cobra clutch but dont know about the flywheel.

Make sure to upgrade to an 11 inch clutch set up. depends on how much money you want to spend.

not worth the extra rotating mass to me but i guess if your into that. There are way more choices clutch wise with a 10.5" as well.

One of these days Im installing my King Cobra as well, Ive heard great things about them, but if you plan on building your car for high hp, get a Mcloud or a Spec 3

It depends on how much HP you are running. Then match it with a clutch of the same nature.
