SDPC they are a sponsor here with an awesome ls7 clutch kit you can buy the pilot bearing and slave cylinder/throw out bearing from them great prices great product... as far as master cylinder depends on what you want i like my adjustable tick performance has great adjustables i hear and yes your stock master will work but take into consideration how many miles are on the car

Whatever you do, change the slave. You're completely ignorant if you don't change the slave; I don't care how broke you are.

The throwout bearing is going to be on the slave cylinder when you order it. You pretty much got everything covered.


FYI: My CETA went 7.01 @103( 1.71 60ft) and a 11.15 @ 129(1.91 60ft) with a LS7 clutch. Heads, cam, full exhaust, FAST 90/90, full bolt-ons with a 150 shot. Never had a single issue with the clutch.

Can anyone explain why a LS7 Pressure plate requires an LS2 flywheel? LS1 will not work??? Is the bolt pattern different, or is there a recess in the LS2 flywheel so the height is different?
