Exclamation Help: Poll What Clutch Would Be Best For My Application!?!?!?!?

what clutch should i replace mine with? i have a 02 SS M6 that is cam only with spray for now but later on will have the 90/90 setup as well as heads and possibly a stroker kit down the road. i need a clutch that will hold everything i got. it has been retired to a weekend car but still will see street time. IT WILL SEE A PRETTY GOOD BIT OF TRACK TIME AS WELL. what clutch should i go with?

+1 for LS7. It has a firm engagement and excellent clamping power. Not to meantion its cheap, as said before.

i was looking into the LS7 then i heard it will eventually have problems at the track with slipping. with the amount of power ill have i just dont know if the LS7 is the right one to go with.

WHat you mean? THe vette is making 500FWHP so i dont really see any reason why it wouldn't hold for you? I've so far heard nothing but good things about the LS7. Which when my LS6 clutch goes i will be going with the LS2 flywheel and LS7 clutch setup for me..

I vote for Texatralia, becase i really like mine and pedal pressure feels almost like stock. I have about 2000 miles on it now and i have no complants other than it is a little high in price.

I have to agree that I would go with an ls7 clutch. Unless you are planning on going well over 500 I dont see the problem with it for the price.
