Default Emergency clutch/flywheel question 06 GTO

My slave died so the transmission specialist said i should do the clutch

I ordered an LS7 upgrade and flywheel

Clutch- LUK 04216
Flywheel- LUK LFW191

The guy is saying it is noticeably beefier and bigger over the stock and may not fit. The car is up in the air currently awaiting the call to throw the existing stock one back in or go ahead on the LS7.

He claims this could break the transmission.

Help.

The LS7 is known to be a fairly heavy (as in weight) clutch. I would find a lighter alternative from one of the many vendors on this site.

Lol. It won’t break the trans. It’s fine. Use it. It’s do more research next time. Especially if you’re not capable of doing it yourself.

He wants to charge me double labor if it comes out wrong and the trans has to get dropped again
