LS2 GTO Clutch decisions
#1
![Question](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Car has full bolt ons and makes 400whp/400wtq, weights around 3500lbs curb weight. I can smell the clutch and the pedal goes short every time I take a trip to mexico to do some racing. So, I think it's time for a new clutch. I will also be getting a Tick master cylinder at the same time.
I am trying to cut rotating mass off of the car as well. With a CF driveshaft, new wheels and tires, and a lightweight flywheel I should lose about 60lbs of rotating mass. Therefore I DO NOT want the LS7 clutch. Why? Because not only does it weigh more, it is larger and pushes the weight even farther out.
-A heavy pedal is not a problem
-Full faced clutch a must
-lightweight flywheel and pressure plate a must
-Keeping chatter down is a bonus
Clutch Suggestions?
The Spec 3+ has been recommended, is it what I am looking for?

The 3+ is a great option (of course it is a little heavier than a similar puck-type disc but you indicate that you want smoothness and that a full-faced disc is a must) that will easily cover your output and wanted specifications. If you want to lighten things up further you could opt for an Aluminum Pressure-Plate and Aluminum flywheel. Let me know if you have any further questions and I will be happy to assist you. Thanks,
