I'm good with the level 2, never going to go above 525rwhp.

My clutch in my cobra was a chattering SOB! I had a Ram HD in it. Pedal was super heavy and i hated driving it daily but boy would it grab! lol
In this car being its a little more luxury, im going to go with a lighter billet flywheel (not sure which one yet) to eliminate that diesel feel when i shut it down and a good clutch that will hold between 500-600RWHP that still has a decently light pedal that preferrably doesnt chatter.
Anything come to mind that fits what im looking for?

With the Katech spacer, any LS1-LS6 clutch/flywheel will bolt right in correct. If I end up spraying this car I will be going with the Spec 3+. If I keep it NA I will be going with the LS7

Guessing the spec stage 3= is the best option then. If I were to stay below 450RWHP, i could get away with the LS7 clutch and flywheel?

I would think so. I had it when I was N/A. I had MS4 cam, fast 90, LS2 TB, and headers. I could chirp the tires going into forth and never had a single problem. As soon as I put the maggie on, boom, instant head ache. It started sticking to the floor and all kinds of stuff. Even slipped on me a few times.

Went spec 3 and now it only sticks when I need to flush the fluid and never slips.
If im gonna spray it, ill go spec so i leave myself some room to grow...

Sorry to hear that Max. I was real close to pulling the trigger on the 3+. I changed my mind at the last minute to the Fidanza twin. This is not the first I've heard of the problem your having. Keep us posted.

or was he having issues with his monster setup?
The rep at spec told me to try just fshiting with the clutch pedal only half way and it seemed to help as I took it for a rip today, this weekend Im going to bleed the hole system again and go from there.
if that doesnt work im going to drill the master, if that doesnt work im going with a ls7 kit
