Default clutch problems need help

O.k I went to the track last night. I made about 8-9 passes on a new set of drag radials. On the last pass a sprayed a 100 shot. My clutch stuck to the floor and would not come back up. After I let off the gas for awhile it popped up. What's up. I guess that's a sign for a new clutch.
I have a 98. If I go with a 2002 zo6 clutch. What will I need for the conversion.
Or should I go aftermarket???


:cheers:

You don't need anything special to install the Z06 clutch - it will bolt right in. You should upgrade to the Z06 slave cylinder. Lots of opinions on aftermarket clutches, but it will depend on your performance mods if you actually need to buy one.

Spraying a 100 shot I would say aftermarket.

My Z06 clutch lasted about 3 bottles on a TNT 100 shot before the center blew out of the clutch disk. I would get a RAM, McLeod, or Cartek.
