Default RE: clutch recomendations

So, any one ever ran a zoom clutch? I've not heard anything about them. I saw them used in a few mild street builds on tv a few times, but haven't talked to any actual owner of one. I am looking for a new clutch on my 351c, and I was curious. I am on a slight budget, and want to get a diaphragm style clutch, over long style. Anyone really like ram, either? I hear mainly talk on spec/centerforce/mcleod. All of which are expensive. Mcleod the most. =(

thanks to everyone for posting. i think that the clutch in the car is a king cobra (or what i was told by previous owner). i have only had the car 2-3 months, but it seemed pretty good. well thanks again for recomendatations.

i was looking at the spec clutches personally (stage 1). the guy that is going to do my clutch told me to get a ram power grip. but i wasnt looking to pay 350 for the ram clutch. how do you like the spec clutch. and has anyone used the ram clutches.

if you're not going to do any seroius mods then just do a stock clutch, everything else is way overkill.

I just had a spec stage II put into my 85. Works great and no chatter.
