Maybe so, but it was 500 on spray so I wasnt hitting it all the time anyway but when I did by some act of god my clutch actually held. I dont get how I cant drive when my clutches stay together yet you can drive but burn them up.

Defensive?? Not at all. I just find it odd that you are burning up clutches like that. What was your ET?

I have never had a clutch installed by anyone else, how much is it to have someone drop your tranny, setup the clutch and put it all back in?

4-6hrs of labor at 50-60 per hour Around 200 but no more than 360. If you can do it yourself why take it in, it is so much more fulfilling knowing you did it yourself!

Because you dont get the warrenty with a BOP unless you have a dealer install it.

the warranty and the STOCK pedal feel, drives like stock yet holds the power. and most shops charge 350-500$ for clutch install. FYI

I'm not gonna "nut swing" on this clutch just yet. It may be the end all but time will tell. I think it's holding like 800+hp/tq? I wonder how long the LS7 body will hold that power and will the factory flywheel fracture? who knows,I hope not. Everyone wants a great clutch that holds a bazillion hp so is this the one? I guess we'll see.
