what are the advantages/dis-advantages to the different types of clutches out there. I have seen 3 diferent types.

1. two clutch shoes with one spring that goes around the clutches.

In my car, I have the first design. If I wanted to try out the secound design, do i just need to buy the parts that are listed in that link?

the third design is for off road vehicles as a way to protect the tranny


the third clutch your looking for is a sentax clutch(i think)
has somtin to do with ball bearings
 
MY storm has the dual shoe and spring combo, its easy to put them on and take them off. Seem to grab good.
