hey everybody. So i just bought a LS7 clutch kit. came with LS7 clutch,PP,LS2 flywheel. and a brand new master n slave cylinder. both GM ones. My question is i did not buy a bolt kit tho. you kno the bolts for the fly wheel or the PP bolts. is this something i should do or just use the old ones. and em i forgetting to do anything special since its going on a 99 z28? im not sure if i can cuz by now money is extreamly tight but i assume so. Also since its a kit do you thing the flywheel is balanced or should i have it done. This whole project is for my 99 Z28. Thanks for the advice fellas.

 

The pressure plate and flywheel bolts are reusable.

 

thx man. i will reuse them then.

 

The only thing I can think of that you are forgetting is a new pilot bearing, cheap insurance around $12.00 and now is the time to change it while you are in there. Make sure you use some sealant on the flywheel bolts as they go into a oil galley.

 

Dont forget red loctite on the flywheel/pp bolts. Bad day when those bastards back out.

 

^^^ i wasnt sure if it was red or blue. I used red, shew lol thanks for posting that

 

Does the flywheel bolts go into an oli galley on the LS3 engines?

 

They are reusable, but make sure you use lock-tite when re-installing them.
