There are several places (most on the net) who will make a clutch disc to
any spec you want... I recently got one for my project from Superior
Friction in San Jose, CA (408-436-1101)... I can't speak to the performance
as the car ('62 Sylark) is not on the road yet, but the quality "looked
good"... It is a 1/2 carbon-kevlar unit 1/2 organic... I'm running a light
flywheel (Woody- Wedge Shop) and a Mustang 5.0 Clutch + Pressure plate with
a 10 spline center added... The Two pieces were 210.00... So no idea what
the disc alone was... Give 'em a call...nice guy, many options.  Hope it
helps...
