Couldn't tell hardly any difference from the Mcleod RXT Twin to the stock LS7 clutch. I was running a billet steel flywheel though. I bet Redline could get a good price for you!

its one of those places you really cant cheap out... people buy 400 dollar converters and wonder why their shit will 60ft and fall on its face on top end instead of spending 1000 on one. It also helps to know people with parts laying around.

i got the clutch in the cobalt at a hooked up price of 1050 shipped. Exedy Hyper single. only other option to upgrade beyond stock was lightweight flywheel for 350 and 775 for a southbend/DXD/ZZP clutch... i dropped something like 22lbs off the clutch/flywheel combo with that.

all the other ls3 cars come with an ls7 clutch, gxp's did not and got the worlds wimpiest setup. the stock clutch pedal is "absurdly light" per motor trend... cobalt had the same kinda clutch to start with, they had the clutch slip before the tires would to help the car hook and keep it from tearing stuff up from idiots doing rev limit clutch dumps.

My base model vette has a LS9 ZR1 clutch in it. I love it. It grabs like no tommorow! But then again, it's just a measly base model vette.....
