Default LS7 Clutch?

Has anyone checked into using a LS7 Z06 clutch or has one in their car now? I had thought about using one myself as my current clutch is about gone. Any feedback would help.

Yes, a few people have done this with positive results. To use the ls7 clutch on an ls1, you also need to buy the ls2 flywheel since the clutch wont bolt up correctly to the ls1 flywheel. Seach here and in the ls2/7 forum.

You dudes are gonna have to search, I know theres a half dozen threads on the subject. I cant comment in depth because I dont have one yet! But from the reviews, its just a touch stiffer at the pedal, but grabs much harder. Stocklike drivability and no chatter.

I haven't really looked at the issue, so that's why I asked how it compared. Since I don't have a car at the moment or anything
