Clutch help

L33 and tremec TKX in a jeep. New fidanza aluminum flywheel for LS1. Just need some help selecting a clutch. Engine is mainly bolt ons, with a BTR cam and headwork getting done soon. Hoping for around 400 ish hp. I'm looking at SPEC, RAM, McLeod and others if you recommend. Trying to keep it under $500 ideally. Car will be a street daily with some spirited driving. Maybe some passes when I get everything buttoned up.

Also, Is the factory 98 to 02 fbody clutch an 11 inch or 12? The flywheel is meant for a factory clutch.

You mean a factory ls6 clutch? Or ls6 style? The one I'm considering getting is the ram hdx and it'll fit both ls1 and ls6 and is 11 inches

If you haven't bought anything yet consider a LS7 clutch/fly wheel combo. Maybe a 2006 or so. Also a 2002 Camaro slave. Also a speed bleeder.

Currently have a ls7 clutch and flywheel in at the moment. I wasn't a fan on how heavy it all was. Im going for faster rpm climb. Already got the flywheel back on black Friday Friday. Slave is a tilton adjustable.
