which aftermarket clutch set is necessary for my kind of power.

I have newly rebuild motor about to go into the 92' camaro including an 85' T-5 manual tranny. The tranny seems in good condition so i need to know what clutch is good for my combination. Lets say my hp range from the flywheel is 275-310. I have been considering to get either (zoom,mcleod,centerforce,ram,or some other) If possible please NAME THE AFTERMARKET PRODUCT,HOLDING POWER OVER STOCK,PRICE for my application,and if u had any experiences with any of these products, and if u liked it or not.

I've had every one of the brands you mention, and more besides. You can add Borg-Warner and Hays to that list. All of them were good. You can't go wrong with any of them, as long as you pick one that's appropriate to the application (no 5000 lb darw rac-only ones, and so forth). I've also had some Borg-Warner "Brute Force" packages, which I felt were the best bang for the buck of any I've had. The overall best working clutch has been the Centerforce Dual Friction.

Proper prep and assembly is more important than which brand you use, as far as longevity.

With that little power, any performance clutch you get will be fine. The thing I have liked about the CF DF is that it is silky-smooth in bumper-to-bumper traffic, but hooks up like a round-track in/out box when it's time for some action.
