Default LS7 Clutch on LS1? What is the final verdict!

So can you use the Ls7 clutch on a LS1? What is needed? I may be pulling the motor and going to an LS2 block. Any difference?

Should be the same for most everything else.

I've got about 1k on mine and it's great. Feels like stock (pedal) but sticks with no chatter. I get stuck in bumper to bumper traffic and even with a good size cam it's fine. 430RWHP/405RWT

Yeah, but how it is going to hold up on a healthy cammed LS1 with 100 shot of nitrous?

I'm debating if I should save the money and do the LS7 clutch/pp/flywheel or spend the extra money to get a Textralia.

I say spend the extra money and get the Textralia. I love my Textralia. Driveability is excellent and it grips great at the track.
