Default ZOOM clutches.... Who's using them?

I am currentlly building a 396 LT1 stroker motor With LE3 heads and the LE4 cam with a 300 shot of NOS and a turbo kit as soon as the car is running. I have been reading the post on the clutch poll....... Everything is kinda dispursed between good and bad on every clutch. I am going to be different and probably go with Zoom stage 3 HP series. What do you guys think of Zoom clutches and who is running them. I was planning on going with the Kevlar padded one that does not use rivets to hold them on insted the kevlar is binded. If I get a lot of negative feedback i will go with something else.

Don't even think about running a Zoom clutch on that setup. Get a dual disc kit. I think that you'll be much happier in the end.

Used to sell them at Advance Auto Parts, and have seen Zoom clutches crap out in daily driver 4 and 6 Cyl. non-sports cars. They are not the best clutch out there. I would steer clear of them.
