LS7 Clutch installed...goodbye sticky pedal After plenty of research on this site, I finally decided to go with the LS7 kit in hopes it would fix my sticky clutch pedal. I've put around 1,500 miles on the car since the install (and have beat on it pretty good) and the pedal hasn't stuck or slipped on me once.

Have either of you been to the track with this setup? I'm looking to find out if it will hold up to some serious clutch dumps at around 400rwhp, but so far it's not looking to great. It sounds like they tend to glaze over when hotlapped or launched really hard. If this was a strictly street application, I'm sure it would be great, but I plan on racing a lot this year, so I'll probably end up having to go with the Tex.

I don't have 400rwhp, I have 380rwhp only, but I've hot lapped the LS7 for almost ALL of 06. Each time to the track minimum 15 runs, as many as 25 on a empty day. Clutch dumps at 3500-4000rpm, 315 Nitto Drag Radials then when those died BFG KD (it's a street car more than a drag car).
Have so many slips in the trunk, at least 100+ since I went to the track at least 10+ times.
The LS7 has held fine for me. Though I'm sure my suspension was not up to the task of holding my power, every shift 1-2, 2-3 and even 3-4 broke traction. 2-3 was pretty brutal as even I could hear the tires scream (not chirp).
