difference between LS2 and LS7 flywheel?
So it sounds like the GTO LS2 flywheels are different than corvette LS2 flywheels, correct? I've got an '06 GTO LS2/T56. Been planning an LS7 clutch, guess I'll have to buy one of the kits with the vette style LS2/LS7 flywheels then?
Is my complete GTO clutch take-out worth anything? Probably cost more to ship than it's worth?!?!
thanks

02BLK...I was out of the office at PRI and have just noticed your response. Since you have had issues with and without the shim and with the OE bearing and ours it could be possible that your problem is hydraulic. Of course it seems that you have little interest in determining the actual cause at this point. If you would like to send the unit back to me for assessment I will be happy to check it out for you...that is what our warranty is for after-all. But, I suppose it's easier to just post negatively than it is to seek assistance from the manufacture 
. To each his own I suppose...if you change you mind let me know and I will still be happy to assist you! Have a good evening.

The issue is solved I bought another setup, since I drive this car everyday I cant have it sit on the lift and take up my space in the shop I work for and not have a way to work everyday. I understand you want to help me but I dont have time for that, this car has been giving me issues since I put your clutch setup in it and have had the transmission out of it 4 times trying to get it right and having to stay late to try and fix an issue and it not do anything. Sorry Im just gonna switch to an LS7 setup.
At least now you seem to understand that I was trying to help. Of course you have to make the call that is best for you regarding parts if you have an issue. If you need anything further just let me know. Thanks,

will some one please tell me if a LS1 style flywheel 98-02 camaro with a luk ls7 pressure plate and ls7 disk will work on a 2007 GMC 4.8L motor? I am not concerned about the disk, pressure plate and flywheel compatibly, as it is sold as a complete package on ebay. I just need to know weather it will bolt onto my crankshaft, and weather the balance will me right?

Look at the steps around the edgeof the flywheel in the above pictures.

this is the kit I bought, they haven't shipped it yet will it work? I relize this is for a Zo6 not a LS7 my mistake, just need to know of the flywheel will bolt onto my 4.8L motor, and if it will ruin the engine balance?

The flywheel is the same for the LS2, LS3, and LS7 vettes to my knowledge and is pn: 12571611. The LS2 equipped GTO uses the same clutch kit as an LS6 which also has the same flywheel as an LS1.
So to eliminate confusion, I would suggest ordering a complete kit like we sell here: http://www.tick-performance.com/tick...body/clutches/ or just buy LS7 specific part numbers.

That is a dampened hub that gets turned by the input shaft of the transmission, hope that helps. Don't hesitate if you have any questions about a Monster clutch, Chris 817-750-2000
