Centerforce dual friction, IMO.

I ran a McLeod twin in my 91 (415 RWHP on motor, 550-ish on spray) and I broke everything South of the transmission. The clutch drove great, but it was insanely violent if you tried to power shift, side step it, etc...

I swapped to a Centerforce Dual Friction, with the centerforce single mass flywheel, and really liked it. Drove nice, and didn't beat the car to death on hard shifts / launching. I also never broke anything once I made the switch.

A pal of mine did a Centerforce DF in his 96 Collectors Edition and really liked it. His car made about 350 RWHP on motor, 500 ish on spray.
