The kit does not come with a TOB...but they are sold separate if you'd like one. If you buy a new slave cylinder, it comes with a new TOB also (this is the best deal, as the new slave is just a few bucks more than the TOB alone).

This page has everything you need! You'd just go with the standard slave cylinder and LS1 pilot bearing if you want to replace them!

TY very very much i'm going to be purchasing pretty much everything from you guys i think.. ls7/ls2 kit, slave and master cyc.'s and pilot bearing,,, one question tho, the slave is the 01-02 model right? just making sure before i put in my order

Yes, you can no longer even get the early model hydraulics...if you tried to order them, the number would just supersede to the new numbers.

Updated the quantities in your post for those bolts. If you're doing all of that, you might as well throw in a new pilot bearing too! 14061685

One last question, does the ls7/ls2 clutch kit need to be balanced? or is it prebalanced by you guys?

Just install it exactly like a stock replacement & go. No balancing required or shims. Very straight forward install qith no secrets to make it work. Just bolt it in, bleed it & drive.

Copy from install university , for reinstall

"Install new flywheel and torque the 6 bolts progressively to 74 ft-lbs in a criss-cross pattern. Use a flywheel tool (or equivalent to hold the flywheel during torqing. (sorry no picture) Clean the surfaces the clutch will touch on the flywheel and pressure plate with brake cleaner. DO NOT touch these surfaces after cleaning. DO NOT touch the clutch lining! Oil/grease will reduce clutch life and hinder performance of the clutch!
Use a clutch alignment tool to hold the clutch in position and then install the new pressure plate tightening the bolts to 52 ft-lbs in a criss-cross pattern. "

i have a ls7 cutch and i liked it before i put a cam in my car. when i got to the track now it slips really bad. you cant ride a ls7 clutch very hard at all or it will glaze. i figured that out the hard way.

Weird, mine hasnt slipped with over a years worth of stop & go daily driving. Hasnt slipped since the H/C install either. It'll rip em lose thru 4th without slippin.
