Default Clutch Question?

I bled my clutch a month ago to get some more life out of it, and I know its not going to last much longer the way I drive.

I wanted to know how easy it is to put in a new clutch, how much an aftermarket clutch will cost me, and how long it will take for 2 people with all the right tools and a shop to do the job?

Oh and who recomends what clutch?

1994 Civic EX, D16Z6, 5 speed.

ACT makes some good clutches.

With two people who know how to do it and have experience, probably around 6hrs tops.

Ok, I have my ASE and my uncle knows anything about old cars, but not hondas. Im not worried about how long it will take, I just wanted to know if there are any things I need to know that are out of the ordinary, like parts that need to be replaced besides the clutch when I take them apart / and or things to be carefull with.

I know I have to get the presure plate turned and checked for cracks, ill take that to the NAPA machine shop, they said it will cost me 25.00 to do that.

How much are the ACT clutches, and are there different grades? What does ACT stand for? Need more info than just how long it will take.
