clutch replacement suggestions?

Since search doesn't work, do any of you have any suggestions regarding a replacement clutch. I'm thinking aftermarket performance - either an ACT or Wolfe.

Any experience with either?

Also, how difficult/long does it take to replace the clutch?

Replacing the clutch is about a 3hr job. Just drail the gear oil, take off the axels, then drop the 5spd. The replace the clutch and reverse.

ACT StageI is more than enough for most people. Im using a StageII Kevlar clutch because I dont like the ACT's hard clutch pedal feeling.

Are you saying that the Stage 2 is more driveable?

Where did you get yours - also do you have a lightened flywheel?

Normally, would I expect to have to resurface the flywheel?
