I'm running a McLoed RXT. I cannot say its exactly like stock but it is very street friendly. You will notice it being a bit more grabby but nothing like a bucking bronco. Smooth engagement without a super heavy pedal. Very rarely during warm up I get a little bit of clutch chatter. It will hold the power you are making very well.

There are a few good options out there from what I am reading.

Mantic 9000 twin and Monster LT1-S are a couple that have good reviews from users here.

What's wrong with the factory clutch? Callaway's 600-ish hp vette has over 200000 miles on the original.

Some people have issues with aftermarket hydraulics + certain clutch combos. Do your research first. I am running stock with my setup. Get a remote bleeder for sure. They are cheap and will save you a lot of headache.

Good advise here, I've experienced issues with aftermarket hydraulic and an aftermarket clutch before.
