Thumbs down Which clutch would be best...

Trying to figure out which one would work best for me. My choices include:
  1. some form of a 6-puck race clutch like LCE's pro metallic clutch
  2. a dual composite clutch like an ACT or LCE's street clutch
  3. OEM Toyota clutch
  4. full ceramic clutch like the one Marlin sells
I've heard the ceramic ones work better when they get hot like when bogged in mud or going slow over rocks and I have no shortage of mine getting heated up. I don't know if I neccesarrily need this though. I have plans of a few smaller power gains (exhaust, carb,etc...) and maybe a tall gearset (or dual boxes) so I wouldn't want to get something that will "get by for now" and then have to replace it again later. I want to do it once. I have also heard that some of the Heavy-Duty an High-Performance clutches are a little stiffer to use. This really wouldn't bother me 'cause I'm the only one that drives my truck anyways.

Lemme have some input on what you've used and what seems to give the best results.

dont go with the ceramic most peopel here will tell you they are bad and grab too much. I liek the sound of the lce street clutch anythign else is just too much. Personally i went with a hays heavy duty truck clutch from summit, for 200 bucks. It is rated for snowplows and stuff liek that. I have had it for 10k and it ia awesoem and a great value as well.
