Default Clutch swap, bolts/spacers?

I'm about to install an LS7 clutch/PP and a Fidanza aluminum LS2 flywheel. I know the Fidanza flywheel comes with new bolts, but I don't know if the LS7 clutch/PP comes with all the necessary hardware. If not, does anyone know the part number for the bolts? I want to minimize down time for my car. Thanks.

Does the Fidanza Alum. Flywheel need any spacers or anything? I've heard that the OEM LS2 flywheel bolts up directly without any spacers, so I'm assuming the aluminum version will be the same.

Just get a set of ARP bolts. I picked mine up from Summit (They've got a retail store over here). Replace the flywheel and pressure plate bolts.

ARP Flywheel Bolts #330-2802
ARP PP Bolts #134-2201

Awesome, do you know if those ARP bolts will work for the LS2 flywheel? I'm assuming they would since the LS2 flywheel can bolt up to the LS1 crank.

Also, anyone who has used the Fidanza Alum. Flywheel, did you need to use any spacers or anything?

I'd assume so. I've got a Fidanza Aluminum with a Centerforce I clutch/PP, ARP bolts and no spacers.

FWIW: the Ram twin disc comes with ARP hardware...I thought that was a good selling point.

I cleaned the factory (old) bolts with the correct die and treated them to a liberal coat of Loctite 271 (red) and didn't have any problems.. Took my girlfriend out with the money I saved opting out of new hardware... Save the money and put it in your IRA. Its definitely a judment call
