Exactly what he said.
I just put in their OFE, rated for 450 HP but know people running almost 600 through it. Almost a stock feel to it, only slightly more grabby than stock but barely noticable.

Next up the line is the FE, very grabby, not for traliering.

Afte tht the 3250 dual disk, great clutch from what I hear but $300 more than the OFE, a little slower shifting and a little noisy with the 2 disks.

You won't need a new flywheel or the upgraded hydraulics so your setup would be at leat $500 cheaper than mine.
