I kinda chickened out on doing this myself so kudos to you.[emoji16]. The local shop put in a Napa clutch which is made by Luk because I wanted to keep the soft factory feel.  They also resurfaced the flywheel.  I put on less than 100 miles and the clutch was slipping already and I had a rough vibration felt through the car.  I ended up ordering the Ford Performance clutch and a new flywheel.  When I went back I told them to replace them again. Didn't want to pay them to swap parts too many times.  Anyway they think the flywheel was resurfaced down to minimums and wasn't catching.  When they pulled it out the flywheel already had burn marks again.  The luk clutch was very light but didn't seem like it downshifted or dragged the car down when coming to a stop like the oem.  I took the Ford clutch out last night for an hour drive and kinda like it.  My complaint with it is that it is very stiff.  I bet it's double the pedal effort from the luk.  Did seem to get better the more I drove it.  Maybe I'm getting used to it?  It grabs on much better and even though the pedal is stiffer my shifts are smoother. Shifting between the gears is a bit notchy too. I suspect that will smooth out too. I wish the luk would have worked out. Fyi the Ford clutch has Valeo stamped on it fro Korea. Hope this helps.
