Can't go wrong with a southbend but the Factory Sachs clutch is a good clutch as well just hard to find the true stuff...

Yup, call Peter at Southbend. Answer his questions honestly and he will build you the proper clutch for your application. I'm still just blown away by their customer service every time I deal with them-awesome people
