Default Got One!!

I've got one in my C5. I don't know what of power I'm making until I get it tuned (@ Cartek) next Tuesday.

I had a new LS7 setup and it was very nice, but the engagement was very low. When I put my 402 in, I went with the Cartek Level 7.

So far I like it very much. No chatter and I used the stock LS7 flywheel.

Form what i hear , its really good, ive known alot of people to run their clutches for a long time with plenty of track passes on them and daily driving, i would imagine that the newer ones are even better....Im ordering one for myself in about a week

chatter is not the problem. the problem is full disengagement. That's what I'm after.
