The clutch grip force sells is the stock unit which they promote as a HD. I almost went with the Luk HD unit that many on C5's are using but opted for the Exedy single. I originally called grip force and they danced around every question I asked. If a stock Z06 is what you want then buy it but be careful with grip force. The true HD Luk unit comes with an aluminum flywheel. The best deal I have seen on the Luk's was www.carolinaclutch.com.

Luk does make a great HD unit which is very popular with the C5 owners. It comes with an aluminum flywheel and seems to hold very well with the modified cars. It is very reasonable. I spoke with the guys at Carolina Clutch which offer both the Luk and the Exedy. The Luk was somewhere in the 795 range for a complete balanced set with aluminum flywheel. I just had alittle more hp and want more than what the Luk may have handled. The exedy was more expensive but is very sweet.
