Clutch for a 65 with 4 speed toploader

Any recommendations for a clutch for a 4 speed toploader (original Z bar clutch linkage) in a 65 with a fairly stock 289?

I recently just replaced mine with the Exedy FMK-6096HD kit. Make sure you machine the flywheel "mine was stepped down 20thou"
Very easy on the foot.

Thanks John. Where did you buy the clutch?

Anyone used one of these - https://www.npcperformance.com.au/product/super-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-package-npc6173d-3fw-c/  (Head office is only a few suburbs away.)

Might be overkill for my car.

From the clutch place that machined the flywheel. Exedy are also available via eBay.

That's overkill for a standard 289 plus it's double the price.
