I did it prior.

Southbend stage 3 clutch and lightened flywheel, 24lb i think. I didn't go with the lightest flywheel because I didn't want all the chatter. Also HD CSC and replaced the CMC. The CMC is a must. My car only had 6000 miles on it. The guys that did my clutch didn't bother changing the CMC, it failed before I got home from the shop. I ended up installing it myself and everything has been good since.

Talk to Joe @ Zspeed. His customer service is up there with Sasha's.

How was driving with a stage 3 Clutch on stock Power? Do you think CMC will fail again since it's OEM?

The clutch is slightly stiffer than OEM. Not unbearable, it feels firm, just right. As a matter of fact, I have the RJM clutch pedal assembly in the 'same as factory' setting still. Right now the CMC is the weak link. It will likely be the first thing I check if I have issues in the future.
