Thumbs up Chevelle LS3/T56 Help Needed

I'm looking to buy a clutch/flywheels setup for a T56 out of a GTO and L92/LS3 setup. The current flywheels is for a auto so that has to go.

With the tune and cam package I should be around 550HP at the flywheel.

Drivability is important for me as well.

1)What size clutch do I need a 11" or a 12" setup?

2)What kind of flywheel should I go with?

I can get this Centerforce dual friction at a great deal would you recommend this or is this even the right clutch?

A budy suggested an LS7 cluch?

Thanks for the help!

Prices seems good. I'm considering the Ram Aluminum Flywheel to go with the LS7 Clutch.

I'm not a fan of Alum FWs for street and heavy cars. If your Chevelle is over 3400# and street/strip, I'd stick with the steel FW..

Just my $0.02
