Clutch for my LT1

**zbizkit** · 12-11-2006, 06:20 AM

I have a 95 lt1 with maybe 315-325 rwhp. I put a Spec Stage 3 clutch in it about 15 months ago. This past weekend I was doing a burn out for the ls1 calender. When I got done with the burn out I couldn't get the car in gear. I am sure its the clutch. I have hated the spec 3 since I got it because you can't slip it. I have heard that the Spec 3+ is slippable and a better clutch.

Any advise on what to do would be greatly appreciated. I don't want to put a $650 clutch in it every year. Which clutch will hold?

It is driven only on the weekends and does see the track. It is mostly driven very aggresively.

so it was the clutch for sure? that sucks. I say get an lt4 clutch or maybe a spec stage1 since you allready have the spec flywheel [i dunno if you have to buy a GM fly for an Lt4 clutch]

It could be a problem with the hydraulics... After it cooled down would it go into gear?

nope, it sat for a good 3 hours and would not go into gear while turn on.

no problem. I am not upset I just was never really happy with the spec stage 3. Wanted to see if other people thought other clutches would hold up better.
