Default What flywheel do I need?

I have a 2001 Z06 and would like to buy an ls7 clutch and flywheel to replace my stock clutch. I will also be replacing the transmission to the standard C5 at the same time. My question is what flywheels will work with the ls7 clutch and c5 transmission? Could i buy the clutch separately and use this flywheel?

The LS7 clutch is a heavy clutch. I would consider one of the Fidenza aluminum flywheel/LS7 clutch combinations being offered here on the forum.

Check this link for pic of LS7 flywheel:

Notice the area around the pressure plate attachment holes, the LS7 is recessed and the LS6 is flat.

Thank you for the referral. Yes, we offer the kit with the GM flywheel or the Fidanza and would be happy to help you out with either.
