Default leary about cost

Not too sure about the cost. I believe you have to buy their shoes and springs. A good 4 shoe setup for my 8ight-t costs me about $60.00 or less (Flywheel = $20.00, Hardened aluminum shoes= $20.00, Springs =$10.00, hardware kit =$10.00) But then if I dont screw up the flywheel, I am just paying for another screw set and shoes for the rebuild. I can get about two weekends out of a setup. I have three spares so Ii think I am ok. I have a couple spare bells too but I think I have only replaced one or two this whole season. Takes me about 5 minutes to build up a clutch anyway. I am always for a better mousetrap but I think my stock style suits me just fine.
