do you know what clutch is in there now? How long has it been in there miles wise? my guess is you are somewhere in the 350hp range and 900 ft lb range roughly. So to allow for improvements, Id go with a clutch rated for 500 hp and 1200 ft lbs. You could do a single but itll be very rough engagement for that power so I vote dual disc. Southbend is the way to go. You get what you pay for in the clutch world in my opinion.
I personally reccomend going with a southbend street dual disc, very smooth operating when compared to the single disc of the same power holding rating. also, with this clutch, upgrading the hydraulics is not needed. and it works great for towing and backing trailers cause its so smooth. Depending on where you can pick one up, itll run you about 900-1200 bucks. comes with a new flywheel, both bearings, new flywheel bolts, starter adaptor and bolts plus the clutch plates, middle flywheel and pressure plate
