Default Twin disc clutch
I am using a Tilton 66-302UG, 7.25" 2-PL, CERAMETALLIC, ULTRA HIGH RATIO, STEP-TYPE (740 LB-FT CAPACITY) with button flywheel and flexplate.

Havent tried this Rally type clutch yet so I cant comment on durability, I have used the std 7.25" sintered bronze race plates and they lasted surprisingly well with limited road use and positive driving!
I am not a fan of the organic riveted linings, go to the track and all I ended up with a disintegrated clutch plate!

With the button flywheel/flexplate the engine will have a noticeable quickness in the way it increases and decreases rpms, I guess there is some power to be gained and not sure as I run a Jerico trans whether there will any advantage in gear changing...!!
