I had to make this same decision when I had my truck converted to manual.

The choices were:

a) standard GQ clutch
b) heavy duty clutch
c) safari clutch.

I went for the heavy duty clutch.......something a bit stronger than stock, but I didn't want to fork out the extra $ for the safari.

But then I only run 33's and I don't flog it too hard either.
