'09 cts-v 550hp???? Anyone know what kind of clutch come in the new 6.2L 550hp '09 CTS-V? I would think it has to be a beast to live behind 550hp and that big of a car. Maybe another affordable factory setup like the famous LS7???

Damn, you're probably right. Maybe, just maybe it's different it since the CTS-V uses a more traditional rwd engine/trans layout instead of the C6 torque tube setup......

The LS9 and the LSA clutches are different. Both are twin disk, but the LSA uses a dual mass flywheel with 240mm disks, while the LS9 uses a single mass flywheel and 260mm disks. The LSA clutch is made by Luk and the LS9 is made by Sachs.
