Default Need help picking a clutch...

Greetings,

I need some help in deciding on a clutch for my 98' z28. There is a Spec stage 1 in there now that started slipping at around 1200-1500 miles. This was put in before I had purchased the car. The car itself is pretty much stock, no major power adders, and there are no plans to make it anything more than that at this point.

So i'm looking for a nice OEM replacement clutch. I'm looking at Luk and LS7 kits, but I am very open to suggestions since i am a new LS1 owner, I don't know much. I Come from a 3800 SII background, so this is all new to me.


If there are similar threads, please link me to them, as the search function was not working for me at the time of posting.

Good to know. Thanks.

ALso, I've been recommended to check out the RAM and ZOOM clutches... I've been reading so far on these boards that RAM clutches have mixed feelings.
