Default Looking at new clutches: Centerforce Dual Friction, Mcleod super street, and a Spec s

As the title states I'm looking for a new clutch for my car. I was looking into a Centerforce Dual Friction, Mcleod super street, and a Spec stage 2 or 2+. Any opinions on these narrowed down choices? I want something upgraded from stock, but a noticeable difference from stock. If there are any choices I overlooked that you may know about, by all means share them with me!
Thanks,
Matt

my last clutch was spec 2+ what a nitemare very heavy pedal!! would get chatter sometimes down low. Only lasted 11k my last spec clutch!! if i had to go with them id go with spec 3 only because i know some people with better results with spec 3. My new clutch is a centerforce dual friction which i have a couple thousand miles on, so far i love it grabs great, handles my power well and pedal feels as soft as stock which i didnt think was possible so far LOVE it only one i will buy in future

I have heard good things about the Centerforce, but i want my pedal to be a little bit stiffer actually haha. I know it sounds crazy but maybe im just nuts lol. Dan, let me know if you're going to sell that clutch. The other concern that i just thought about is, would i be better off re-surfacing the flywheel or just buying a new one(aluminum)?

plus i think my clutch is going anyway, when i shift 1st to 2nd it bucks like crazy(it never did before and if it did it was like a tiny bump) when i shift 2nd to 3rd, it does the same thing just not as bad, when i shift 3rd to 4th, it almost hesitates(if i shift at say 4500 it'll hesitate at 4k and then almost like ease its way into accelerating if that makes sense). *note* this only happens when i shift quickly and shift over 4k other than that its not too bad at all; i also notice in the pedal, the clutch seems to be engaging further back like as im letting out the pedal, closer to me) could this be signs of me needing a new clutch?
