And which flywheel did you get? I've heard the LS1/2/7 flywheels were all drilled differently for different pressure plates.
The LS7 flywheel is different and requires a specific pressure plate. The GTO flywheel/clutch may be different also. Not sure on that one.

Finally got around to measuring and realized a very important step - I did not have the clutch disc in place when taking my original measurements (just the pressure plate). I didn't realize that the fingers would retract and increase my clearance when the disc was installed, so I actually need to get a .100" <b>larger</b> bearing with my original truck flywheel . Oh well, lesson learned. Thank you all for the help.

Just for the record, the Camaro flywheel does give you an extra .500" or so if anyone else ends up needing that information.
