Stock 12" Clutch?

Is this the origional style clutch for my 72 GMC, 350 with 4 speed. Ive never really seen a clutch like this one with the 16 or so coil springs.

Yup, that is what they came with. Do your left leg a favor and switch it to a diaphragm clutch right now.

Are there any advantages to this style clutch?

The diaprahm 11 in. clutch fits the same flywheel. If you are not going to do any heavy hauling or towing & do not ride the clutch I would use it. Be sure the T.O. brg matches the pressure plate.
