Does anyone have any experience with the dual clutch engine kits? Are they wider then the usual 2 stroke kits? If so do they interfere with the pedals? Is the dual clutch a reliable system? Any opinions on the dual clutch kits would be appreciated. Thanks.
 
By 'dual clutch' do you mean the type on engine that has both the manual clutch and the centrifugal clutch?
I have the centrifugal clutch kit installed on my engine, and it works perfect. All my future builds will have a centrifugal clutch installed.

I bought my centrifugal clutch kit from ZoomCycles:

I am very happy with it, it works great.
In my area, there are stop signs on every block, and using the manual clutch became a pain after a while, and I rode it less and less, in favor of my friction-drive bikes.
After installing the CF, it is a joy to ride again, and is now my favorite bike to ride.

I installed the wide pedal kit, so I have clearance, but yes, it makes the engine a little wider, I'm sorry I don't have any spec on how much.
If you have a one piece crank, you can always heat it with a torch and bend it out to clear:
