Comparo of the LS9 flywheel and standard LS1 flywheel.
LS1:
LS9:
I'm going to a local guy tomorrow to see if he can weld/redrill the ls9 flywheel for a standard 6 bolt pattern.
EDIT: Anyone have pictures/measurements of an LS2 flywheel to see if maybe it can be used?

Awesome pictures. I have an LS2 flywheel/LS7 clutch combo in my car. From the looks of it, the LS9 disks are a smaller diameter. This makes sense since it is a dual disk clutch. I bet it will not take long for an after market company to come out with a hybrid flywheel. One that can accommodate the LS9 clutch and bolt to a standard 6 bolt LS1/2/3/6/7 crank.

Another thought. What about the '09 CTS-v LSA twin clutch? It's not as stout as the LS9, but the press release claims the LSA uses a "less exotic forged crank". Maybe the LSA uses a 6-bolt crank...googling.... ;-)
Edit: Nevermind -> "steel crankshaft w/ 8-bolt flange"
