I've heard good things about South Bend Clutches. I purchased my clutchmaster clutch from Hahn but haven't gotten a chance to try it out. I've heard mixed reviews on the clutchmaster products though.

Heres the site for South Bend

Southbend Clutch is your best bet right now. Unless you have one of the oddball 95s, you have a modular clutch, which limits your options. The pressure plate, disc and flywheel are all incorporated into a single unit which slips on and off the input shaft on the transmission. SBC can hook you up with something best suited to your needs.

For more reading, search the forum for "modular" by subject.

+1 That's what I'm runnin, best bang for the buck also, as there's not a lot of aftermarket options for modular. Either the OFE or FE will do ya fine, email them and they'll hook you up.

all 95-99 will be modular EXCEPT some '95's, they had an early neon-style setup with a regular flywheel and clutch, not the flexplate/modular clutch assy. Yours will be modular unless it's been screwed with in the past.

ok cool. Well i also checked on how much i have left after this engine rebuilt.. 430 is alot and i really dont have that. Any other ones that is around 300ish? i dont think the stock one would be a great idea either.

*edit*
So i looked at clutches some more and a question came up.. Whats the differece between full faced plate and like a 6 puck plate? im looking at mach V website herews the url

This facing has a 9000 RPM burst and dissipates heat quicker then any other organic lining on the market. This kit generates 1/3 more torque then stock. Also included in the kit are a throw-out bearing, pilot bearing, and alignment tool.

TZ: TZ kits contain a modified high performance pressure plate with a heavy duty Kevlar® lined disc. The metal backed Kevlar® linings provide a smooth engagement and have the torque capacity to handle high horse power, high revving engines . These clutch kits maintain a stock feel at the pedal and have unmatched durability. Also included in the kit are a throw out bearing, pilot bearing, and alignment tool.

Front and back of metal backed TZ Kelvar® lining. The steel backing gives this lining the ability to spin up to 12,000 rpm.

if you want a better-than-stock budget clutch, buy a PT Cruiser modular unit and call it a day.

Just for my own clarification, is that the turbo or N/A PT?
