What brands of clutches does everyone run?
What does everyone suggest as far as a good street clutch?
I want something that will perform well with a stock setup, but also perform well later down the road when I start putting some goodies on it.

Why not just put in a Z06 clutch & assembly, or are you planning on modding it beyond what the Z06 clutch can handle?

Well, eventually I would like to get around 400-450hp range.
Having a setup good for 11s time slips.

Z06 clutch should hold the 450 hp, I going with the RPS clutch and it cost $1100, but I am shooting for 600+ rwhp with my setup.
