Depending on your needs ur going to have to look at what the manufacturer recommends( As far as like, Stage 1 etc should have a description), Id Say Spec, Ram and Center force are a good way to go.

Centerforce's weights are a gimmick. They dont work.

Ram is a good stock one, McLeod for a high performance car.

If you can afford about $300, the Ram Powergrip clutch is an awesome, all-around performance clutch. For that matter, even the Ram OEM replacement clutch is probably better than the originals. I've run several different clutches in my 69 Camaro over the years, and the Ram Powergrip has been the best one hands down.

Re: slipping clutch!! which must i buy????

some parts houses carry Brute Power, which is the same manufacturer as Zoom clutches. They are a great up-grade replacement clutch for a medium duty street car. - they're also lower $ when compared to an aftermarket performance clutch, which could easily be in need of replacement by the time you actually need it(unless you start throwing a bunch of mods at it real soon).
