Clutch Question

About...a year and a half ago I replaced my clutch with a McLeod Dual Performance clutch. A bunch of people told me I didn't need to resurface the flywheel and I kinda skipped that step. The car vibrated a little, most notably in reverse. It may be the reason why my transmission mount (1LE) bit the dust after less than one year.

I put in a poly trans mount and now it's almost impossible to go in reverse...well it's possible, it works fine, it just rattles the car to death (and scares people at 50 yards).

I'm probably going to be doing a clutch job soon, most notably turning the flywheel. Mods are in sig. Current clutch has 30,000 miles on it. Any suggestions on what I should do, what clutch I should get, and also if I do need a clutch, pressure plate, and throwout bearing? I'm probably going to go with a SLP Disc, Plate, etc, but I'm open to suggestions.

Well, I don't believe you want to turn a flywheel more than once. You could run into problems after that. The McLeod is a good setup IMHO.
