Which is The better replacement stock clutch. A gmpp LS7 or a Centerforce LS1 ? I'll be doing a auto to manual conversion going behind a 5.3 L turbo. I understand both of these clutches probably won't be able to handle much power. But it's what I can afford to get on the road. I know there are much better clutches out there and I should probably save up to get those however it is what it is. Please feel free to weigh in on these two choices I have.

They are about equivalent when it comes to capacity. I am not sure what your budget for the clutch is, but I am looking at some on ws6store right now and they have some decent deals going. $233 for a spec steel flywheel and $386 for the spec stage 2 clutch to go with it and it will handle 690 ft lb. The Monster level 2 and 3 are on sale for $555 for the level 2 and $605 for the level 3, and they include the flywheel in the kit. Depending on your estimated power level, any of these 3 clutches would be far better for handling the turbo engine, and are not too far apart on price from an LS7 package. Just some options to think about. I have a Monster level 3 and love it.
