you can use that clutch bell, its a 13/18 clutch bell and will give you great low end. You need to extend the clutch nut/pilot shaft by using a piece to extend past the clutch bell, i think a piece of a 5/16 tension pin would work, you cut it down just enough so the pin extends out of the clutch bell so that when you tighten it down, it wont bind the clutch bell.

it's a 11/14 compared to the stock 16/21 i think it will be to much low end for a street car what if i put small washer in to bring it up

for a street car use the hpi 3 piece setup or the stock clutchbell is steel also.
I carry the steel stock one and allaboutfunhobbies carries the hpi one.

Extended my shaft will have to try her out later I thought a smaller gear would give you more and a bigger would give you less when put on motor.I think i'm going to go with the HPI set up 18/23.I'm not sure how this 11/14 is going to do i got the one gear fixed on the trans the one with the one way bearing HPI makes a gear that will work for that is a HPIA-449.
