Default LS7 Clutch ???

I have a 99 Z and am in the process of changing the clutch. Does anyone know if the LS7 clutch can be bought from a local Chevy dealer? I have tried to ask them if they sell the LS7 clutch and they don't seem to know what I am talking about. Is this just the same clutch they put in the new Z06 vettes with the LS7 engine? Also, do I need to change to a different flywheel for the LS7 clutch right now I am stilling running the stock flywheel. Any suggestions would really help.

I don't think you can run the LS7 clutch with an LS1 flywheel but I could be wrong.

You can get an LS7 Clutch & pressure plate with an LS2 flywheel from Scoggin Dickey for $399

Depending on your mileage, if you havent changed the slave cylinder yet, you might want to do it while your in there.
