Are the cork-aluminum friction plates good?  Are fiber ones better?  What is the best?

How many clutch plates of 13089A/B do I need?  One of each?  Which thickness--looks like there are three options?

What about 92145-1243, of which Partzilla says I need 10 ea.?

Personally, I went with the current spring and upgraded to two holders. I replaced the FRICTION plates only. You need to measure the complete package to ensure it is within specs. You have the link to the parts listing and info.

Clutch problems with my 1999 1500 Drifter... torn down for fixin'.  Could use your help--comments appreciated.

1.  I see some use clutch spring 92144-1934 (early Mean Streaks), some 92144-1295 (2005+ Mean Streaks).  Is one stronger?

2.  Planning on upgrading to dual holders (13280-1306 and 13280-1307).

3.  I understand there are 8 friction plates (13088)--are the cork-aluminum ones good?  Are fiber ones better?  What is the best?

4.  How many clutch plates of 13089A/B do I need?  One of each?  Which thickness--looks like there are three options?

5.  What about 92145-1243, of which Partzilla says I need 10 ea.?

I'd look in the Clymer manual but I lent it to my mechanic (cousin) who currently has my Drifter in pieces on the floor of his shop :-)
