Choosing a new clutch help??
I have recently done a bunch of modifications to my engine increasing my RWHP from 325 to 440 and now it is time to upgrade the clutch of course. So here is the big question which clutch should I go with? I have had some recommend that I got with an LS7 for the stock feel and some have recommended a Spec 3 clutch. I believe Textrilia has been thrown out there too. I want to get feedback and personal experience from you guys since I trust a forum member over anyone else. Thanks in advance for the info shared.

I would recommend the SPEC Stage 2+ for that power level. It's rated for 620 ft-lbs and will take all the abuse you can throw at it. We use the Stage 3+ in our turbo Z06 shop car and it has performed flawlessly.
I have a great special on them right now http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c5-p...eel-bolts.html
Let me know if you have any questions.
