I know there is a spacer offered to make the stock slave work with the z06 clutch for $60 but with 120k on the car, I'd prefer to spend the difference and get a new slave while I'm at it. Which slave will work best to put this LS6/Z06 clutch in my car?? I'm told it's different than the standard V clutch so will the C5 Z06 slave be fine or should I go with the C6 Z06/LS7 slave?

Thanks in advance fellas!

I didn't know the slave was different. Can you post a pic?

I'll post a pic when I get to the shop in a bit. The V slave is shorter. Katech and TPIS offer spacers for it to make it work with the z06 clutch but like I said, with 120k, I'd rather just spend the $100 and replace it while I'm in there. I just don't know if it's the c5 z06 slave that I need or if the C6 z06 slave will work on it...

I have the Z06 slave in my car with the ZO6 clutch.....I just had to do a little bit of shaving on the inside of the bell house to get mine to fit....

U mean shaving at the base of the bellhousing to clear the slave?

Yeah but do you have a C5 or a C6 Z06 clutch? They are different.

C5 z06 clutch. It's a competition clutches stage 4 kit and light flywheel. They didn't have a part number for a V... Just for a c5 z06/LS6.

Still looking for the answer to this if anyone knows! I know the C5 Z06 clutch will obviously work but still unsure of which new slave will bolt up and work with no issues???

Also, will i have an issue with the size of the throwout bearing? I have one that came with the kit so im assuming it would work with the longer slave that will work with the new clutch but i am not 100% sure...

Honestly you might juat have to measure it. The bearing should be fine.

Spoke with Luke at Lindsay Cadillac and he said the LS7 should work. Says he's not 100% sure but he said considering the factory slave would work with a spacer, the LS7 is a little longer so he doesn't see why it wouldn't. Just wanted to find out for sure before I spend the money ordering one. I can measure my stock one but won't be able to measure the new one until I buy it so that's my only issue.

Did you ever figure this out? I am installing a Centerforce 12" DFX clutch and it has the same dimensions as the LS6 clutch. I need to know what slave to use or what other slaves I can use that have the same dimension. I am also using the Katech slave spacer.

Stock on left, new C6 GM slave on the right.


C6 base and C6 Z06 (LS7) are the same PN.

Sorry

Sorry, I don't understand. They are obviously both GM slave cylinders. The first one (LEFT) is stock so its obviously a CTS-V slave, but the one on the (RIGHT) is what? LS6? LS7?

Looks to be an LS7 slave.

Ls7 indeed

Does the pedal grab at the same spot?

Grabs a little lower.
