I prefer OEM clutch discs. I have experienced issues with EBC and Barnette plates and kits. For example: I installed a Barnette Kevlar kit in a YZ 490 and the overall stack thickness dimension was well short of the *worn* OEM stack. Of course, the Barnette kit did not work correctly, and I ended up installing an extra spent disc to get the whole thing working. The number of discs in the Barnette kit was correct. The discs were just much thinner than the OEM items.
I would also stay away from Heavy Duty springs. These can cause issues as well by causing the pressure plate to flex, causing drag during disengagement.

You might want to search. A lot of folks, including me, use XR 350 plates instead. They fit but have more service area. Jeff Fredette will even sell a package with the right amount of fibers for the KDX.
WR sold. Now have 03 and 04 KDX 220s.
KXF 250 forks. RB Carb and Head. FMF rev pipe. Long live the KDX !!!
