Difference between clutches???
I know my bearing in my clutch is going out, so I'm gonna replace it, looking to replace it with a 2, 2+ or 3. I can't seem to find anything that is descriptive enough for my mind to grasp. Can anybody help?

The only difference is the power they can hold. I don't know the exact specs but out the 3 the stage 3 would the strongest. If your not heavily modded then you could probably get away with the stage 2 or 2+.

When I was looking into clutches I watched a movie on youtube about Stage 2/2+/3 clutches, and they highly recommended not just jumping for the 3 because it's the strongest. I don't know how much power you're pushing, but they installed a stage 2+ on a Cobra with pullies. Just food for thought.

I've been real happy with the Ford Racing King Cobra clutch. It works well with my 400 ft-lb 5.4L engine, and should hold up well enough up to 450-ish hp at the crank.

I know from experience not to get too much clutch for what your car has. Mine is a pain in the butt and I can't wait to go back to more like stock feel. I got a stage 2. Pressure plate is so hard it gave me tendinitis (along with lots of basketball)!
