Default What clutch?

I have a 2000 trans am WS6, mainly stock for now but plan on full boltons this winter. What clutches are there that keep the stock pedal feel and last for a good while? I was thinking either a SPEC stage 2, or a Ram HDX clutch. I plan on changin the slave to an 01-02 and puttin in a new master as well. any feedback is helpful

thanks,
michael

I believe textralia is a popular choice.

If this is going to be drag raced, do yourself a hudge favor and install some 4.30s or meaner. This will make the clutch last longer both on the street and the track.

It's mainly gonna be street. Its my daily driver and if I went to any other gear than stock it'd be a 3.73 gear. I'm goin full bolt-on's for now, i'd want the clutch to hold up to 425+ tq tho, and near-stock engagement would be great. im gonna be buyin the clutch this weekend or the beginning of next week so i can install it next weekend. all quick responses are helpful, thanks

If its gonna simply be a blot on car, thats raced on the weekends (and not even every weekend) I'd go with the LS7 setup.....should hold the power no problem, and a bit easier pedal feel in a daily driver than most

i was thinking about the ls7 clutch but do you also have to use the ls2 flywheel or whatever? or some kind of (i want to say shim because i cant think of the name extension or something) to make it work on my car? I was just gonna resurface my flywheel if possible to save on some much needed cash unless i'll be needing a new flywheel anytime soon, miles=95,000 as far as i know its all stock.
