Ouch- $689 for a clutch that can be had elsewhere for $550 shipped (LS7)?? MTI has always been overpriced IMHO. Shop around and you can do better. Good starting point though.raven1124 said:http://www.centerforce.com/

same, with the spec don't know if the stage 3 will be daily driver friendly.kwiktsi said:No, I do not- I still have the stocker. I am hoping I get to see how the LS7 performs before changing mine out, if it does well at ~600+ WHP, I will be going that route. If not, I'll probably go Spec.
Joe
the stage 3 mite be the way to go, think there rated to 680 hp and with the pro and the other mods your doing you'll come pretty close to the 600 hp mark. and looking to get there myself. :cheers you post some good info and facts, thanxkwiktsi said:.
The LS7 is 505 hp and they put the clutch behind that motor, so depending on your goals, it should be a good, reliable upgrade. Only thing that I wonder about is the extra weight the GTO has to haul around compared to the Vette.

thanx for the heads up, sorry to here your haveing a problem with yours. did you get a new flywheel or have the old one turned? I was thinking of just turning my stock one. I fig. its only a metal plate. but I alos see that the ls7 mostly comes with the flywheel. hope spec dose somthing for you.svede1212 said:. LS7 is being used by many now and is working well. for the price i would go with that if i did it again.
Yeah, seems like that or the 3+ like svede- just have to wait a bit and decide. My stock clutch still grabs ok, just has issues occassionally with a hard 3-4 shift- but that is the only shift that doesn't get any kind of wheel spinburnz said:the stage 3 mite be the way to go, think there rated to 680 hp and with the pro and the other mods your doing you'll come pretty close to the 600 hp mark. and looking to get there myself. :cheers you post some good info and facts, thanx
:agree and as for the clutch I have all winter long.kwiktsi said:Yeah, seems like that or the 3+ like svede- just have to wait a bit and decide. My stock clutch still grabs ok, just has issues occassionally with a hard 3-4 shift- but that is the only shift that doesn't get any kind of wheel spin. Once I get traction, I know this clutch is going to call it quits and then I'll decide from there.
Thanks, I try to stick to the facts- I really hate when people spew stuff over the net with no firsthand knowlege like it is fact.
