Best Clutch

[Dr.Crash]

i am looking for a new aftermarket clutch for my 02 SS. right now i have a spec stage 3 and it has that horrible chatter. i am lookingh for some thing that is smooth but can handel atleast 500HP
thanks

How long have you had the stage 3 in the car?
Myn has gotten better with each mile (250) but the petal is hard.
I might go with the new LS7 clutch and pressure plate. I still might change myn out. I do not like the hard petal.

I run a RamPower Grip HD with the 300series disk. It has held up well beyond my expectations. I run Nitto DR's and a healthy dose of Nitrous often. Zero chatter and about the same pedal stiffness as your Spec 3. This clutch drives like stock to me. I did run the Spec 3, great holding power but got tired of the "on/off" engagement and chatter.

oh no its been about 15,000 miles and it's gotten worse. but yeah i was looking at the ls7 as well. thanks for the input. both of you. i hope i can find 1 that works!

for the price, i would get the LS7 clutch. thats what i would have gotten.

[Dr.Crash]

hold on wait! i meant to say ls6. i didnt know that the ls7 clutch worked with the ls1 w/T-56. is that true? thanks

[AKIRA]

Hah I didnt know either!

I remember Textrailia(sp?) making a decent clutch. I have the LS6 clutch and its lasted along time, but I wouldve gotten something better.

Stock in the 01 & 02 was the LS6 clutch I thought?

[AKIRA]

correct

[Hurley711]

LS7/LS2 clutch & flywheel setup. I have around 380 RWHP, and the clutch feels like a stocker.

[Hurley711]

BTW...Fred Beans in PA usually has a great price on the LS7/LS2 setup

[Dr.Crash]

so di have to do any mods to use the LS7 clutch? and where could i get one? thanks

[Boos_WS6]

I just bought the LS7 set up from Fred Beans. I also bought the 2002 Slave and throw out bearing. I am hopeful that I can get it all installed next week.
I like the Spec3 and if I was 18 to 30 years old it would be the nut!
I am 40 and want the soft petal and no jumping up and down on normal driving. If you like the 2000rpm launches at every stop light then buy the Spec 3. I will let you guys know how it all turns out when the install is done.

Mcleod single/kevlar. No chatter, leaves rubber on road in 4th!

LS6 is your stock clutch.

[AKIRA]

Hahah, it is!

Really, an 02 Z28 clutch is the same as an LS6 clutch???
