Default LS7 clutch

Is this clutch also made by Luk? and anyone know the weight of the whole setup? (clutch, flywheel, pressure plate)
Thanks in advance. Bob

Not sure but it does seem to suffer from the pedal to the floor syndrome just like the other LUK clutches do.

Yep, I believe I recall seeing LUK stamped on mine before I put it in.

I created a thread on this a while back, but it is gone now.

If I remember correctly, PP, Disc, and Flywheel were a total of 50 lbs.

Default LS7 Clutch?

Does it have any special adjustments like the LS6 Clutch?
