Default Ultimate LS7 clutch thread....

Lets get all the info together into one thread. Here's some info to include:

Type of vehicle (f-body, vette, gto, etc)
Weight of vehicle
Power of vehicle and N/A or power adder
ET times and 60 ft times
Type and size of tire used
Flywheel used
Rearend gears
Launch rpm and type (feather, side step, etc)
Clutch hydraulics (updated, drill mod, etc.)

Overall opinion of the clutch

These are just some thoughts. There are a bunch of LS7 threads some with good info, some without so hopefully we can keep all the relevant info in here.

The clutch is real nice on the street after about 3k miles or so. Jury is still out on whether or not it'll hold up to real tires.
