I think the zoom is unnecessary for your app. Call up Carolina clutch, they'll hook you up. I have ceremetalic. .. but I think it requires a new flywheel. They have others though that are good stock replacements and can handle a little more power.

The only mandatory item is a Kevlar pilot bushing to replace the factory roller bearing crap!

I went with a South Bend Clutch. The first time i drove it with the new clutch instaled I couldn't believe how easy it was to push in the clutch pedal. The clutch pedal was lighter than my Jeep Wranger.

Just my 2 cents.
