I'm having a problem figuring out which clutch and fly wheel to get. I've seen that the ACT 2600 is a common choice, but I don't think it'll hold. The ACT 2900 may be a bit much for the crank and "may cause crank walk". I don't know much about the spec clutches. Sorry I'm knid new to DSM's I was a Nissan guy so JWT was an easy choice. Can any one piont me in the right direction? Also I plan on running 18-22 psi on pump and 25 psi on Race gas, but I'll see once tunning begins.

The 2600 clutch kit will hold just about anything you can throw at it. I have driven on many different clutches and the 2600 for the price does the job. You dont need an aftermarket flywheel. Your stock one resurfaced will do the job, but if you must get a lighter flywheel, I havent heard anything bad about the ACT flywheels.
 
the 2600 is MADE for awd, as the 2100 is MADE for fwd. the 2600 is a really good clutch that I have head alot about, and tested out some and they seem to be the best choice with an AWD vehicle, if you want to go ACT. Anything more than a 2600 or equivilent pressure handling capabilites will not be able to get used. When you use a race clutch, it is made for racing and daily driving on the street cannot beat the clutch, and stage 3 clutches are made for a good beating, and this will develop wear if the clutch cannot get a workout.
I say pickup a ACT 2600, or possibly a Centerforce clutch with around a 2600 pressure handling. good luck man!:thumb:
