Personally, I use a AP racing organic with the standard clutch cover on my Sapphire 4X4 for a very hard fast road use
and I have a good result not to hard at the pedal and it holds the torque very well
You can use a complete AP racing organic but it becomes very hard
You can order a second clutch cable to have it in stock
Sorry for my English I come from Belguim

A ceramatallic paddle plate would be good iv'e been told, would be a bit heavy on clutch and you'll get abit of vibration, but as your going hydrolic you should be ok.

That's what I would use, but even a standard clutch in good nick will take this no problem.
