Is there a preferred clutch/pressure plate/ throw out brand out there that people are using for 1275s? I would like an aggressive one, but want it to last like a stock clutch.

Thoughts?
 
Hi Barry,
I understand Borg $ Beck is a a trusted brand. That is what I got for mine with a "bearing" throw out bearing. Stay away from racing clutches, they're even engaged or not. Not user friendly on the street.

My two cents.

Borg & Beck. Granted, I had to do a 1500 clutch, but the Quinton Hazel clutch I had must have had a defective or incorrect pressure plate. It would not release at all, no matter how I tried, even after pulling the engine out two more times to try to figure out what could be wrong. Put the Borg & Beck in, and it worked perfectly with no fuss.
