The LS7 holds lots of power while having pretty descent street manners. There are issues with a "pre adjustment" at the beginning. (search my name) This route is also fairly inexpensive.

On the flip side, my friend has a monster stage III. It's either on or off. Rough on the street.

The clutch to the floor thing is common when the fluid boils in the slave. Problem is it's not easy to bleed as is. whatever you do, get the remote bleeder when you put in a new clutch. worth it's weight in gold.
