Malik, I can happily report my pleasure with my hew ACT HD pressure plate and 6-puck sprung disk that I finished install yesterday afternoon. It is supposed to hold 535 hp and while it is a bit grabby after a couple of hours driving in Atlanta traffic today I'm having less and less trouble with smooth starts. The clutch kit came complete with throwout and pilot bearings for a little over $500 shipped.
Also, the Fidanza Al flywheel steel insert replacement was easy and cost about $50 from a local parts store. Replacing the insert IMHO was superior to having the flywheel resurfaced and the Al flywheel definitely helped with quicker revving.
hth,
Rockey 91T - now on to the MAFT-Pro install :)

My machinist is going to balance everything in the
block. I have to get him the flywheel and pulley.
Still waiting on some clutch input.
