Default Looking for a clutch

I am looking to replace the factory clutch in my 2000 SS Camaro with something a lil stronger but nothing too extreme. Its my daily driver and looking for something not too expensive but something thats not junk. I want something that will hold up to a little street racing and possibly a few visits to the track. Anyone know of a good brand of clutch for me to buy?

SPEC stage 2 pkg...its not super expensive but it will hold a lot of abuse and is very street friendly!!

I would go with a Textralia single disk, or, for a bit less, an LS7 with flywheel...both are proven, and are great for better than stock upgrades..

I drive a Text Exo Skel, and love it...you could DD that clutch all day long, it is a lot of $, but will be one of the last clutches you'll ever need!

Whats up for the options on the LS7 packages? Looking at the BYUNSPEED sight are those things mainly for pre 01 cars?

I am happy with the LS7 clutch in my car. Very easy to drive and it gets driven daily in the summer!
