i've been using a centerforce dual friction....and it's held up great....4-5k rpm clutch drops and the tires just smoke....others will say CF clutches are junk...others never have a problem.
A:

ive got centerforce II...
its just as MSA advertises it...
stiffer pedal, really nice feel...
grabs and goes with a fully loaded car dropping at 5K..just spins the tires...
some say hit or miss--i guess bama and i hit?
try it out!

I'm one who had issues with centerforce, the Df model ate the lining off the disc face, pressure plate side in about 8k miles or so, it was down to the rivets, although the clutch was still working great, zero slip, and I beat on it pretty hard. I blew up the trans in a big way, or I wouldn't have found it for who knows how long... I also just blew up another B box, pulled the trans to fix a very minor leaking front seal, and found a bunch of gear teeth on the magnetic drain plug, I haven't split the case yet to see how bad it is, but I'm done with the early manuals, maybe an SX C box???
