Default Clutch and flywheel question

First things first, my clutch is worn and not much play at all. I have a 94 6speed corvette with only a CAI and borla exhaust. I want to go to the track again but i dont want to take it with my worn clutch.

So I have no idea on these zf units, ive done all my research on the t56 i have with my fbody. What clutch/flywheel combo should i go for with close to stock noise? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks guys

I think that everyone agrees that the Dual Mass factory flywheel is quieter than the Single mass, and the Single and Dual mass FW's are quieter than the Fidanza alum-FW.

In terms of clutch strength and you HP, lots of people use Centerforce Dual Friction, some use Mcleod and a few use other brands.

You could consider the RAM conversion clutch also, if you are willing to go to a push type clutch

This one has been asked and answered hundreds of times. If you do an advanced search for 'clutch' in the C4 tech section, you'll find 400 (literally, there are 400 search results) threads about this.

If you search for "Which clutch" you'll find 10 threads.

If we were to rehash it again, the end result would be a popular vote for you to use the stock clutch. Your mod level doesn't necessitate anything else.

Search e-bay for a clutch dual mass flywheel comb off a crate engine. That's how I got mine for $400. If you are going to use slicks at the track, maybe you should go with something more substantial, but harder to drive on the street.
