Default Get Your LS7 Clutch Kit & Fidanza Aluminum Flywheel Option From CULTRAG Performance!

Hello All,

Thank you for your interest in our LS7 clutch kit. Many people ask us how much horsepower this clutch can hold. GM doesn’t have any official numbers but you can count on 650 horsepower. We have not had any reports of issues with this in any vehicle, unless you take it to the track and constantly dump the clutch. If you’re dragging the vehicle, then you need a different clutch.

With the 2004 Z06 GM updated the slave and master cylinders for a bigger bore to allow more fluid flow. The slave and master cylinders that we sell are only the 2004 Z06 and fit all C5’s from 1997-2004. The slave cylinder also comes with a new throw-out bearing. We recommend a new pilot bearing when installing as well.

To order, please call 484-949-2099 or go to the link below to ordering using our LS7 clutch kit configurator system.

Thanks. Gene.

Our independent in house weight test results were stock LS7 flywheel 26 lbs. 11 oz. and the Fidanza aluminum flywheel 13 lbs. 5 oz.

24255748 – LS7 Clutch
12571611 – LS7 Flywheel

Both LS7 Clutch and LS7 flywheel are $519.99 total.

For both clutch and flywheel on our website, use part number ls7clutchkit under Chevrolet make.

We are now offering the LS7 clutch kit with the matching Fidanza 12.9 lb. aluminum flywheel.

Comes with LS7 clutch disc, pressure plate, alignment tool and Fidanza flywheel - $749.99

24264180 - LS6 Slave Cylinder – $152.24
12564455 - LS6 Master Cylinder – $154.99

*Clutch does work in any LS1/LS6 drive train but must also have ls7 flywheel.
Also, you can only use LS1/LS6 hydraulics, not LS7 hydraulics.

We now also provide a clutch alignment tool with the kit and the kit from GM does not come with this so we have added it for your convenience!

Best decision I made was going to this set-up and Gene's advice was spot on. It's been holding the power for a couple of years now.

Gene,
My C5 has an LS6 swap in it with some work done to it. Currently has a Monster Stage 2 and it's the only fault I have with the car. Holds the power just fine but chatters a lot. How is the pedal feel with this kit? I'm looking for something that mimics a factory smooth clutch but will hold the power may car is making. Also, how durable is that lightweight flywheel compared to the factory one?

The pedal feels the same as stock. You wouldn't notice a difference. It will hold up to your power level for sure. We have had zero issues with the durability or functionality of the aluminum flywheels.

The Z06 is a single disc clutch and can handle upwards of 600 rwhp.

Yes, it would be a great fit, as long as when you're referring to the track you're not talking about the drag strip. The Z06 clutch is not a good drag strip clutch.

Can you provide some weight numbers, please?
What I am interested in is what is the weight difference between a stock (non Z06) C5 clutch/flywheel combo and the LS7 clutch/flywheel combo.
Then how much weight would an aluminum flywheel SAVE me, compared to the LS7 package.
Thank you in advance.

We don't have any weight info on the LS1 clutch. The Fidanza compared to the stock is 13lb 6oz by our tests

Thank you for the order. No need to replace the master cylinder at this time. Since it can be changed while the transmission is still in the vehicle we do not recommend just changing it.
