I need a clutch; Zoom or Centerforce

stevstum · 05-22-2002, 05:11 PM

I was looking online and I have no idea wich one to buy. I was thinking of the Zoom because it is a little cheaper. Or should I go with the Centerforce Dual Friction?

I totally agree. Get the motorcraft. I tried a zoom, and it went bad TWICE in 6 months. I then put in a motorcraft and never had a problem again, 5 years now.

Your not really running enough power that you need a Centerforce DF Clutch. The HD FRPP clutch is more than enough to handle what you have, that's what I'm running on mine with heads, cam intake and stuff at 300rwhp. And it's about 1/2 the price.

I have the centerforce II pressure plate and centerforce clutch with a BBK adjustable clutch quadrant and cable and i have to say it is 200% better than stock in terms of feel. It's much easier to get into 5th and Reverse, i never grind gears, the clutch has awesome feel and broke in quickly and it hasn't slipped once. I've only had it for about 3,000 miles now but i love it. The pedal effort is about the same, but the feel of the clutch is just better. I couldn't be happier, it's a great clutch for a hard driven street car. Just my opinion.
I've had 3 stickshift mustangs and after putting in this stuff, the feel is heads above all my other mustangs that had stock clutches and adjusters. The quadrant will be one of the first things i do to any future 5spd mustangs and i'll see how well the centerforce works out, although i have no doubts i won't have any qualms with it.
Good luck,
