Default ls7 clutch and ls2 flywheel

Anybody know where to find a Ls7 Clutch and Ls2 Flywheel packaged together? Its for a 98 camaro... i've been hearing a lot of good things about this clutch and flywheel. Would it be okay to run this kind of package a nearly stock car?

Check on ebay, a store called "Gripforce" I think the whole kit is about $300-$350 (for a Z06) and it's only $25 shipping in California.

Yea, only 01+ fbods came with better hydraulics...I'd upgrade if I were you..

Also, I tried that gripforce store on e-bay, and I didnt' see them listing a single LS7 clutch....

I called directly and asked for Jeremy! He was the one who answered the phone. And, I can't find the # now!

I'll look some more!

I googled "gripforce" and found a link.
The one I found was for $369. That came w/ the clutch, p. plate, and flywheel. Is LUK a good brand? I am looking for a LS7 setup for my wifes '99 TA.

I just called Gripforce via the number on their site. He informed me they don't stock the LS7 clutch yet. They may not have a way to get enough reliably whic is why htey have them on Ebay. They are selling the LS2 aluminum flywheel for fairly cheap though.

I got mine from T-56 Rebuilds. He is a sponsor on here. LS1Joe is his tech name. He is a great guy to work with. Good luck with your search.

My car is a '99, so I ordered all the '01+ hydraulics along with the clutch kit, and it came to $878.00. So I got the clutch, flywheel, pressure plate, throwout bearing, pilot bearing, clutch master and slave. I love the clutch and the difference in the shifting now with the updated hydraulics is like night and day. I'd give him a call and talk to him.
