Here is a comparison of rev speed between the stock clutch/flywheel setup (52lb flywheel) and the LS7 clutch/flywheel setup (26lb flywheel). Same camera, same exhaust.:

Feels quicker, and easier to heel-toe rev match. It does vibrate while accelerating at any rate between 2000-3000 RPM but I'm hearing this goes away after "break in". This could also be attributed to my poly motor/tranny/diff mounts and steel cradle "bushings".

I'll be shopping for a clutch soon. Is the LS7 clutch the best one out there? What's the best price you've seen on these?

If I did not have to go with OEM parts to get the free install and 1 year warranty on parts/labor I would have gone with a Stage 3 clutch kit from Monster Clutch. Gforce is running a sale on them through the end of December so the time to buy is now!
