Where to buy an OEM (or suitable replacement) LT1 clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder, including the braded steel line?
If you can't get OEM anymore, what is a good replacement brand?

LOL, I do, but I still have to DD this LT1 engine until I can get the LSx swap done. This will be the third clutch I have grenaded in one year since I put the new engine in. Each time something in the clutch disk snaps or shatters. I know power and my driving habits have something to do with it, but I feel like something else has to be contributing to it.

Yeah, last clutch I installed was a Zoom Kevlar clutch, torqued everything to spec, had the flywheel resurfaced, installed a new pilot bushing, broke it in properly for the suggested 700 miles. I do beat my car daily, but I figured it was last longer than 2 months.

I looked at the pilot bushing when I removed the clutch last night, and it looked like the inside diameter had been enlarged, like the inside had been ground away. That's why I think the inside of my clutch disk shattered. I don't know what's causing it. Every time I break a clutch, it's the inside of the clutch disk that brakes.

Mine never slipped, actually it felt really good, held really well too. I like it a lot more than the orgainic stock type of clutches.

That's one good things about the LS stuff..there is alot of aftermarket to choose from. Look into the LS7 Clutch when you get your stuff..it holds pretty damn good.

I picked up a stock setup prebled at the dealer. My cost two years ago was $138. I am sure SD can get you an awesome price as well. As far as going through clutches, maybe your input shaft has excessive play?
