Need Clutch ASAP
#21
I had a Spec 2 clutch for a while it was a stiffer than stock clutch. There was nothing really wrong with that clutch. I switched to a LS6 clutch. It has a more stock feel. Something that a old grandma could drive. I like the LS6 clutch over the Spec for driveablity and over all feel. If you are looking for a stiffer clutch go after market. It all really depends on your goals.
I don't think grandma would be able to drive my car, it be cool though. The seats alone are a problem for her and my mom, they don't like bucket seats. So you swap your Spec for an LS6 just for drivablity? That's the one thing I'm trying to avoid. I don't mind exhaust noise, but I don't want to hear clutch/gear whine. I want it like I want my women; lady in the streets, freak in the sheets...but in a cars point of view. Drive well and able to get on it if I need to

Ok so here is the list of things to get while the tranny is out
1. the Clutch
2. New slave, is there a performance one or just OE?
3. Light weight flywheel hopefully that comes with the clutch, I'm looking at sales
4. Tick adj M/C
5. Remote bleed
6. New shifter, MGW look and sounds nice w/ classic white Ball
Let me know if I'm missing something??

The shifter will be a matter of personal preference.
I found no use for the remote bleeder but that's me.
I prefer the stock Hurst short shift base, Lou's short stick, Classic Hurst ball type handle.
Let Gen414 answer your questions regarding thier clutch packages.
This way you can make an informed decision.

yes i know RAM does but stock oem gm unit is fine they havent had any issues at all and i bet 99% of people on here will agree with staying with stock slave now the master cylinder is another story... during high rpm shifting the stock one affects the way the car shifts and alot of mis-shifts may occur because of it (i know from experience) i upgraded to the tick performance master and there braided bleed line and have had no trouble. the specs are great clutches. they are what most people on the board use. you will hear some up and down feedback about them but more good than bad and most problems that happen with them are due to non proper break in and or installation. BTW i daily drive my car with the spec 3+ IT WORKS!! hope this helps!
what i purchased was when i did my clutch replacement was...
Spec 3+
Spec Billet Steel Flywheel
Tick Adjustable Master
GM Slave
GM Pilot Bearing
ARP Bolts
Braided Clutch Line
Blowproof Bellhousing (Just In Case)

Well I made my decision...dum, dum ,dum
I went with a stage 3.5 premium package from monster clutches and a Tick Performance MC. originally when I first came into the LS community I was certain I would get a Spec, but is has been years and doing a lot of reading. its nothing against Spec, I think there a great company and wish them well. I think the package deal was a great opportunity and im happy with my decision.

Jealousy was bound to happen sooner or later, It would be me and my uncle that will be installing this, as well as the Tick Adj MC. which reminds me that I have to get a can of ATE super blue. and thanks to the members and sponsors for helping decide on what to get.

I'm curious to see how it all turns out.
