Default LS9 clutch on a LS1?

Has anyone done this yet? I have heard that Katech makes a conversion flywheel but just wondering if anyone has done it?

Supposedly you have to run Katech's flywheel AND the ZR1 specific slave cylinder. But, since you can use an fbody slave in a C5, and the ZR1 slave works in a C5, I bet if you could find a flywheel it would all work in an fbody. I thought about trying it a while back, but I never did. It would really be great if you could find a cheap stock flywheel that would work. That would make for a dirt cheap twin disc setup.

I'll be making some calls tomorrow about it, looks like the most expensive piece will be the flywheel although.
