Re-faced flywheel and genuine Standard Ford clutch for Stage 1 [I.E. about 175-180 BHP] will be perfectly adequate

In my opniion I wouldn't bother with ANY fast road/uprated clutch as the stadnard one is so good up to about 200 ponies!

How much power are you going to be running?

In my opinion I would do the following -

Up to about 190 BHP I would fit a Genuine FORD Standard clutch

190BHP to 245BHP - AP2000-8

245BHP Upwards either try the new higher rated AP organic or 4 paddle

Serious Power your looking at the AP 4 paddle or the Alcon 6 paddle

All the above on re-faced flywheels
