Red clutches,Kolene steels,do I need 'em?

Stock should be fine. I have a 10.5 sec. drag car and I have ran stock clutches for years with no problems. Check out northern auto parts I think a kit for a 727 is less than a 100 bucks and is pretty complete. Band, clutches, steels, ruber seals, gaskets, metal rings, even filter I believe.
