Clutch time

Time for a new clutch in the SilverPony. 2000 V6 car. Any suggestions for a good quality clutch? Don't really need anything performance and with my knees in the shape they are in nothing too stiff. It currently has the original clutch with 121K miles on it.

Don't know anything bout the V6 or 2000. In the 5.0 Fox daily driver, a King Cobra is... well... King. Do they have one for your model?

It's not that tough to rebuild a T-5 if you have access to a hydraulic press.

Speaking of, I do and have rebuilt a couple. Also takes a special pair of pliers and some measurement tools. The Hanlon video is priceless!

I have used two of them in the past on modified cars with pleasing results BUT I am wary of the fact that they are no longer made by Valeo.
