Default How about some clutch recommendations?

Hi all,

I split my donor (2004 GTO) engine and transmission this weekend to have a look and I think I'd like to put a new clutch in while I've got it apart. In actuality, the clutch doesn't really have that much wear but there are hot spots and chatter on it so I think the previous owner was one of those people that shouldn't have been driving a manual. I found out no one around here faces pressure plates anymore and I can't even order just the clutch disc itself so it looks like I'll have to buy new.

Anyway, I'm looking for a good value replacement, and even a stock one might be OK for now. My eventual goal of "as close to 600 RWHP I can get" doesn't really need to factor in here as that will be a long while due to funds. I've got a lift so I'm not too worried if I need to change it out later. However, as with a lot of my build, I'm over-doing it where it makes sense financially with my end goals in mind.

I'd like to not have to mess with bell-housing extensions and other weird stuff for now but would like to get a good daily driving clutch that will hold as much torque as possible for a reasonable price.

Thanks!
