,Clutch Suggestions,1993 GT

I need a new clutch for my 1993 Mustang GT,current horsepower is 320 RWH.The current clutch on the car is a King Cobra with Kevlar.Trans is a stock T-5.Car is a daily driver/street car...My mechanic suggests a McCleod clutch....My future plans include adding a Track Heat kit/heads intake,cam which should up the HP closer to 500...Anyways,any suggestions from you guys as to a reliable clutch that would handle both my current 320 HP and my plans for addition HP up to 500.As I don't want to put a new clutch on now only to have to do it again...Thanks for any tried and true suggestions.

I have had good success with a SPEC Stage III clutch in a high horsepower Mustang. It is hard on the left leg in stop and go traffic but that kind of comes with the territory for 500 hp engines.

The mustang shop/engine builder I worked with said to just stay stock (new stock) for daily driver stuff. They put in a rebuild engine with dished pistons to lower compression some as I have an 8# blower on it. 1993 LX ex-cop car Probably have about 330 HP. Did a tune and it runs great, around town. Tires make a huge difference, get some nice summer tires. Them old north cold tires are too hard, smoke great little traction. These guys are good too, the race mustangs on the weekends. Only a blower will get you to 500, or 330, stock Cobra is 240 hp, don't see how you can get 330 without a blower.

I have a centerforce clutch. It definitely gets rid of slippage but can play nasty tricks on the n00b who blips his throttle and doesn't know what to expect. Especially if your cable tolerance is close.
