2001 z28 Most of you know I sell cars for a GM dealership close to Ames. I just traded for a 01 Z28 t-top, car was a one owner man in his 60's, red in color,auto car with factory chrome wheels,leather, 87k and new tire's. If this car wasn't the cleanest 01 I've seen come in I wouldn't be on here telling you about it, it is spottless. Since I traded for it I can sell it for what I could buy it for myself or family. $8500.00 thats a steal from what I've seen junk Camaro's have bringing lately around here. Just give me a call my cell 515-290-3556 if you want more info you've got to see this one. Thanks guy's ........Al Hobart

Hey guys! I am going to be doing a clutch swap in the near future and wanted some local input. I was thinking of the LS7 clutch and i posted my questions in the manual transmission section. and someone suggested the monster level 1 package. has anyone heard anything about these clutches??

LS7 clutch all the way! They grip great & you don't have to be the incredible hulk to push the clutch in........ I can't say the same for the Spec 3+ with Tick adj clutch m/c -It grabbed great but you had to have a least 2 people pushing the pedal in lol

Benji, are you going to be doing anything else to the car power wise? I had the monster stage 3 in mine and loved it. It was a bit of a bear to launch at first but once I got the hang of it I was in love. If I ever get another M6 Fbody (which I hope is sooner than later) then I will be going monster for sure. Either choice would be good for you if you plan to keep the car in it's current form for a bit.
Good luck.
Good luck.

dude i would seriously check out the act clutch from WS6 store, its pretty sweet and feels good. also not as much as monster, i have a buddy down here in columbus who had one. and something with the clutch went wrong. it was something maybe like a faulty clutch but it was something stupid with less than 2k on it and they would send him a new one or even give him a discount

I would eventually like to put a H/C setup, to make around 420 ish rwhp. Now in the thread i posted i have had 2 guys saying go with the monster setup. one is the owner/operater for monster clutches and the other is from Tick. and idk if they are telling me to get it because they are good or because they will get a commission check from me buying it lol.

I've had the LS7 clutch/LS2 flywheel setup for close to 3 years now. I have zero complaints with it at all. I have probably around 70 track passes on mine (when the car only had bolt-ons) and it still feels solid. Pedal feel is same as stock. When mine is ready for a replacement I will probably go with a stage 2 or 3 monster clutch. The LS7 was a great bang for the buck kit.

When I was going with a 6 speed in my junker, I was going to get a Monster, seems to be the way to go for anything more than a mild build.
Too bad I can't come and play on Friday, but maybe I will come to watch.
Hey Joey, you going to LSx in Indy?
