Like the title reads. I will be ordering the following kit:

I'm choosing to order their Magnum package that doesn't include a clutch or flywheel. I'm going this route because it saves quite a bit on shipping to my location. So I plan on sourcing the clutch and FW myself. I would like to stay away from a twin disk setup simply because of the price. I've driven aggressive single disk setups in the past and a heavier clutch honestly didn't bother me.

From what I have researched, the Magnum XL is based off the TR6060 so any 07-09 GT500 26 spline 10.5/11" clutch and a mod motor 8 bolt FW will work with it. Someone please correct me if I am wrong on this.

I have someone local to me selling a BNIB Ram 8 bolt steel FW for $140.

A couple other questions that I have are:

- Can I just use my stock FW or is there justification to replace it with it only have 800 miles on it?
- If I purchase the afore mentioned Ram FW from the local seller, will I be limited to a Ram clutch kit, or will it work with other clutch brands?

Thanks in advance!!

If you do want a McLeod RXT I have the complete set up to go in the '11-up cars with the XL trans that is in perfect shape with zero track time I will let go cheap. It was too aggressive for my taste so I put a '13 GT500 clutch in my car.
