I have heard that the flywheel used has I think 9-bolts to match the special crank used in the LS9, so unless you have the LS9 crank as well or the aftermarket comes out with a conversion flywheel I don't think the factory twin disk will be feasible, yet.

I wish I could find some specs so I can see if the LSA or LS9 clutches will bolt up to a standard LS2 flywheel (like the LS7 clutches do)

The LSA clutch uses a dual mass flywheel and a dual disk clutch with 240mm disks. The flywheel has a 9 bolt crank pattern. The LS9 clutch uses a simpler single flywheel with a dual disk clutch that uses 260mm disks. It too has a 9 bolt crank pattern. Neither flywheel is compatible with older LSx engines that use a 6 bolt crank flange.

Anyone have a part number for LSA or LS9 clutch setup?

I wonder what I could do with the flywheel to make it work (weld up holes and redrill)
