Why would you want to? Just put in a stock clutch which will be cheaper, easier to drive and wear less on the drivetrain. For stock power, all you need is a stock clutch.

Clutch
I agree. If everything's stock, or even if you plan on mild power improvements (i.e. exhaust, intake, porting) the stock clutch/pressure plate will do the job. My 84 GSLSE has all of the mods I referenced above, plus I have 225/18/40 Kumho's (a softer tire) on my car and the stock clutch provides great grip, even on hard launches.

Here's a thread describing the route I took when it came time to replace the clutch. I'm very happy with the clutch I went with; easy to drive and great performance:
