They use them for stock clutches in 01-02 f-bodies so don't expect much from them. I'd imagine under 400 hp.

I wouldn't agree with 350. The C5 Z06 put down at least that much at the wheels. Plus I ran a LS1 clutch for 40k miles cam only that put down 368. I guess its in how you drive it.

I've got a used one with only 10,000 miles. I put in the Z06 clutch/flywheel for my 383.

Sell it for $100 - flywheel, clutch disc, and pressure plate. I'm in Pearland, TX.

Textrillia 07Z00 or whatever its called. I had one in my C6, never gave up one bit. A buddy of mine had one in his T/A with a 250 shot and MS3 5-7k dumps, and it never budged.

Get the LS7 clutch. Only $441.42 from www.gmpartshouse.com/

LS7 Clutch and LS7 flywheel are 441.42

I'm pretty sure they are a sponsor here.

Held the power in my GTO really well (heavy car) never overheated. Friend has one in his C5 Z06 pushing your kinda power too.
