Default LS7 clutch

Hey guys, I am finally ready to do the clutch in my 05 V. 185k and its the 1st replacement.


I know there's a ton of threads on the clutch install. I have searched.

A lot of the treads are dated.

Who has the best prices on the parts now? A lot of the links on the older threads are dead or outdated.

Who makes the best bleeders for the best price?

Thanks in advance for the info.

I come here for a lot of tech info. Most of that can be accomplished searching.

My LS cars have been a 08 TBSS and a 05 V. Both stock, both daily drivers. My fun car is a Buick Grand National. Not much in here for that.....lol

All parts are ordered. I had Jegs price match GM Parts Direct and saved the $60 handling fee. $627 for clutch, flywheel, slave and pilot bearing.

Just need to order the remote bleeder and shifter and I can get this thing back on the road.

Do you have the part numbers for the stuff you ordered? I am currently looking to do my clutch as well.

They can easily be obtained by going to any OEM catalog site (such as GM Parts Direct). It's the same part number for any LS2/3/7 Corvette from 2005 to 2013.

Bought my bleeder at Tick and paid 50€ for it!
