First off your lucky you made it that long on a dual mass flywheel.
The south bend eliminates the dual mass which gets rid of the chance of the flywheel coming apart which is very comon.
I'd say southbend also. But I've had issues with their low grade single discs not lasting long. Personaly if I was to put one in I'd do the 3250 Double disc and be done with it.
It will handle all the weight you can throw at it and it will handle over 500 rwhp without an issue if you ever get to that. It can also take being sliped once in awhile.
