Default lt1 clutch

have anot lt1 t56(about 450 hp) setup and am looking to replace the clutch (on budget about $300), pilot bearing, and throwout bearing. came across this one and wanted to know if anyone is using it:

If not, what clutch kit are you using(given parts mentioned, budget, and hp)?

Most of us with LT1 6 speeds have a dual mass flywheel and a ZF transmission.

You stated you have a T56, so I don't know which flywheel/clutch/throwout bearing/pilot bearing would work with your combination.

As for the clutch you linked to, although no first hand knowledge of that part, most dual friction clutches work pretty well. It states it is for a single mass flywheel, so make sure what you have (assuming that there has been a t56 swap with possibly other changes too).

Good luck.
