yes, It is sized properly so the distance from the mounted clutch to the slave cylinder is correct and allows for proper ROM and operation of the slave.

You know, funny thing about the Google results is, a thread on here comes up where 07CTS-V said he broke the LS9 straps twice with 500whp. Maybe he was just unlucky, though.

I've made a few 10 second passes as well as a bunch more low 11sec passes on drag radials at 800whp in mine. It has been great so far

Lol. I have my Katech LS9 flywheel that I'll sell for 1/2 price. It has some scratches on it from the straps.

Actually it's to convert to the 6 bolt crank. The flywheel dimensions are the same otherwise.
