I'm in the market for a clutch, want some opinions with personal experience.... I'm seriously looking at the Zoom stage II for my NV5600. I'm between that clutch or the South Bend CON FE. The Zoom will hold almost 300ftlbs (1,400ftlbs) more than the CON FE (1,100). ANYONE..........??????????????????

 

I think the SB clutches are under rated Why dont you give Peter aat southbend a call and tell him what you want to do with your truck and see what he recommends I have had 3 or 4 of his clutches the customer service is amazing plus if you tear it up or need to upgrade to an FE he will rebuild it for you instead of charging you for a whole new clutch. (800) 988-4345

 

So far SBC has the reputation. I don't know many who are running zoom. I have the FE in mine, it has never slipped. Dyno #'s in sig were on the clutch.

 

Thanks guys. I appreciate it. Does the FE come with a new flywheel or is the $800 just for the clutch? B/c the Zoom stage II is just clutch no flywheel, but it's only $660 from ETR<EBAY but, I read on Cummins Forum.com that the ZOOM stage II ZVT is a beast with near stock pedal effort... Thanks again.

 

Nevermind, I looked it up at a few different places, the SB is also a no flywheel kit. And ETR claims the Zoom will hold 1,482ftlbs@3000rpm.

 

my sbc ofe is rated at 450/1000. you can see from my sig(and that was a few mods ago) that the clutch is holding quite abit over what it is rated. the product is excellent, the customer service is fantastic. when i kill this one, i will get another SBC without a doubt.
