Diamond clutch from TDP. Had it on my nitrous infused vette and it held up great and was really smooth on the street after the break in (little chatter during break).

Mcleod RXT. Best clutch I have ever run, and I've been through a couple here and there.

The LS7 clutch does well for a mild set up. Pedal repease was close to the floor.
I got about 36k out of my TDP stage 3 Diamond clutch and I bought it used. It was behind my 408 and held everything I threw at it. I daily drove it, but it was an on/off switch with the pedal release close to the floor so it took a little time to get used to. The pedal wasn't heavy like some though, which is good in traffic. Their stage 2 feels more stockish.

I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend staying away from SPEC. I have a Stage 2 clutch and it F$#%ING SUCKS. They are not a good company to deal with and if you have issues that are not a simple fix, they give up talking to you.

I have the LS7 in my rig and I really like it so far, but I only have a couple hundred miles on it.
