Default Where did you go to get your clutch installed?

I might get a Z06 cluth and new hydraulics and have the local chevy dealer install them.

I would rather have a nice stage II or III aftermarket clutch but I have no idea where to go for an install. Everyone I talk too knows a good tranny shop but I don't know if I should trust my car to these little shops in the area.

What do you guys think? Future plans if I can't sell my car is to put in a mild cam like a 224/224/112. Will the Z06 clutch handle that?

You could always do it yourself, and spend the labor money on getting a better clutch.

If a cam is in your future, IMHO, do something better than the Z06 clutch. I installed a Cartek clutch and I love it. 1.48 60' on the juice and it begs for more abuse. But you'll hear horror stories about ALL clutches, Cartek included, so you just really need to talk to someone (maybe call Paul at Thunder Racing) and figure out which might be best for you.

Good luck,

Andrew

He does great work and is worth the drive IMO from your area.

I wish I had the time to drive up there. My job is nuts right now. If this is a straight forward job, then any good tranny shop should be able to attempt this job, right?
