Good luck dropping weight with a ZR1 clutch... They are QUITE heavy!
The RPS Twin Disk Carbon is about 20lbs lighter than stock though.

I thought I read where the LS9 clutch combined with a aluminum flywheel is about 7-8 pounds lighter then a LS7 flywheel/clutch setup.

If you want a better clutch, then go to the ZR1, I don't think you can beat that clutch.

I agree. Forget the LS-7 clutch. Too much hassle to change.
Put the ZR1 clutch in there.
Ls-2 and LS-7 are one in the same clutch!

The Katech LS9x kit is over 8 pounds LIGHTER then the stock LS7 setup and it drives like stock. Best clutch on the market IMO.
