Default Ls2 / Ls7 swaped, now need more

I did the lS2 flywheel lS7 clutch swap last year on my 98 M6, now I added a 416 with procharger and I need lots more clutch. I would now need to order a clutch for the LS2.... like for a GTO correct? Or should I order it for the Z06 Corvette? or are they the same? Would the LS1 style clutch work on the LS2 flywheel? After a year I forget what they looked like and what the differences were LMAO. I am debating going with a single or the dual setup up. The LS7 clutch did not last at all, the first time I hit boost in fourth gear it slipped badly. Any opinions of running an aluminum flywheel with this setup? Thanks!

The ls7 and ls2 flywheels are the same. The Ls1 flywheel is different. If you want to reuse your ls2/ls7 flywheel you will have to get a clutch for a ls2/ls7

A LS7 clutch will not hold up in your car.


Time to upgrade
