Default Stock Clutch Cost

So while i had my car ripped apart replacing the Slave cylinder - i figured i'd have the mechanics change the clutch too. They quoted the clutch kit to ADD approx $700 to my already $712 cost of the Slave Cylinder R&R.

My question is - is that a normal cost? They both said thats the most expensive factory clutch kit they've seen... lol ~$700 Is that normal??

For that price - the clutch i have now is quite alright...

Thanks for clarifying

Dan

Honestly the LS7 Clutch is not that expensive. Aftermarket clutches cost much more...

Fredbeans July specials

||--Genuine GM C6 Z06 Clutch Components--||

24237690 – LS7 Clutch
12571611 – LS7 Flywheel

Both LS7 Clutch and LS7 flywheel are 533.30 shipped.
For both clutch and flywheel on our website, use part number ls7clutchkit under Chevrolet make.

89059282 - LS6 Slave Cylinder – 101.83
12564455 - LS6 Master Cylinder – 103.86

*Clutch does work in any LS1/LS6 drivetrain but must also have ls7 flywheel. Also, can only use LS1/LS6 hydraulics

Thanks for the reply!

The guy contacted the dealer, and found out his computer was wrong. The price they had for the Z06 Clutch was 565, and not 700 so that much is clear now!


Thanks
Dan
