zoom one look like there simillar, how would they compare.im leaning towards the ram one because its a hole kit. would it be a noticable importment over a clutch from a parts store. like autozone or something. last longer? trying to figure out if its worth the extra money, ive read mixed things about everyclutch out there hahaha jezzzz just want to make sure im not wasting my money on a stock clutch repackaged lol becaiscaly i need somehting good for dd that will last awhile and take some abuse

so i go to order the kit and the flywheels on back order ahhhhhh, is there any difference between it and the stock flywheel. anyone one on here selling a billet one i really cant wait a week for it. im thinken about ordering everything separately its only 10 bucks more but i cant find billet flywheel like the one that comes with it for 100

yea im gona try the ram, is the billet steel really worth it for a bolt on 5.0? i think im going to save the money and get the stock one resurfaced and buy a short shifter, is there any advantage to it. the car will be h/c/i at most but not for a while. i just hear some people saying stock flywheel will wear out a aftermarket clutch faster, is this tru or bs

the ram clutch or centerforce? i ended up putting in the clutch that was on the engine i bought in it, alot better for dd. its back and driving but , its idling like shit got problems it needs worked out. its shaking like a bitch for about the first 15 minutes it runs then calms down, the idle keeps changing itself,, i set it and bby the end of the day it ether lowers it self or raises it self to much. i gues the only good thing is it has more powerr some how. it ripss i think it hass a vaccum leak it sounds like it has a dragcam anywhere under 1200rpms. it hates going slow but piggys are everywhere out here lol.
