need a new clutch

I have a south bend clutch right now but need one that will handle more power. I was thinking 3800 or 3600. Do I need to get a different flywheel?? it is a new fly wheel with the clutch I am currently running...
I have the upgraded hydrolic system already. and also sprung or unsprung.

A 3600 sprung hub would be good and it come with a new flywheel i think.

I like over kill because you don't want to out grow something to fast. I would do the 3850. We all have said I will do just exhaust and intake. Now look where we are all at.

Peter told me on the phone that he really underated the 3600 and is finding that its holding up very well on high hp trucks! He said he has guys in the 750 RWHP range sled pullin all season with the 3600 and not one problem.
I was wantin the 3850 but he said hands down go with the 3600 and said remember bigger isnt always better!

I like the 3600 alot. never gave me any trouble drag racing taking off in 4th from 3200 rpm. the only trouble is backing up to a trailer it will jump alot, but I am getting used to it and just reverse in 4 low.
