Default Need Motor Advice WHAT SIZE CLUTCH DO I HAVE?

I've been reading posts on here for a long time, and I've been learning a lot. I've got a rare truck that I love dearly, and It's time to put some more money in her . . .

I need to know where I can get a performance clutch for my 4.8 5-speed, but I don't even know what size it is!!!

Setup As of Now:

Regular Cab Stepside 4.8 Liter 5-Speed with headers, FIPK II, MAF Sensor, Diablo Predator, and 3.73 Eaton Posi Rear. 160 Thermostat, Flowmaster 2 3/4 "

My question is this: What next?? I've got 67k miles on it, and never use anything but mobil one oil, and I have been considering a supercharger, or this new turbo kit I've been hearing about, but I'm concerned about the longevity of my soon to be tired motor. I'm leaning towards the NA route, but I don't know much about motor work PRICES. I'd like to put a cam in it, some new heads, and perhaps stroke it out for some more cubes, but I can't decide what to do first, and in what order.

Also, I have considered just going for it, and doing the same swap another guy on here did, the 6.0 Liter + 6-speed tranny. I've only got about $4000 thus far, what do you think???

Any advice whether minor mods I'm missing or Major ones, let me know - I'm still running factory plugs at factory gap specs with factory wires . . .

Your tranny is a NV3500. Dodge uses this same tranny in it's Dakota, so there should be something out there for it.

Thanks a lot man. I had no idea what it was, and I was afraid that it might be a T5 - that certainly is good news.
