alcon 6 paddle with a standard ford cover .

about £120 for the standard ford kit.
about £160 for the 6 paddle plate

make sure you get the flywheel re-faced or its pointless putting in a clutch at all!!

not the alcon 6 paddle with a standard cover , it feels like a standard clutch and is good for around 400hp if you like launching hard
