Arrow What Do I Need

My Buddy Gets Great Deals From Gm Through His Shop And I Need To Get Into An Ls7 Clutch... His Guy Qutoted Him 240 For An Ls7 Clutch Assembly From Gm I Doubt It Includes The Master But It Does Have A Flywheel.. I Know That There Is A Special Flywheel That You Have To Use In Order To Make The Ls7 Work On Our Cars But I Cant Seem To Find A Definite Answer... Im Just Worried That Its Not The One That Comes With The Kit.

Does Anybody Who Has Actually Done This Mod Know What I Need?

LS7 is the best budget clutch. LS2 FW works with it.
