Default LS7 clutch or LS9 for a '09 C6

Well sounds like my throw out bearing went out in the clutch assembly. Clutch is still OK but thinking about changing out the clutch while I am in there.

Does the LS9 clutch work in an LS3 vette? Which vendor has the best deal. Also whats the best option for a very streetable clutch that can hold 700rwhp.

Thanks!

I thought the Z06 and LS2/3 clutch was the same unit?

We make the LS9X clutch kit for the C6 and 2010+ Camaro. It retails for $1499.99 for the complete kit and some our dealers are having specials. Abel Chevrolet in one of the links posted above, and I believe Quality Motorsports is still working on a group buy.

LS-9 is what I will be putting in my A&A blown car with 570rwhp. I cant seem to make the stock LS7 clutch give it up though. It's a pretty durable unit from the factory!

I run this kit in my C6 and it's amazing. Tough clutch with stock feel.
