I think it is the angle I took the photo that makes it look like they are going in. Let me see in my other pics if they are the same way.

I belive the flat part is down. I took the pics straight on top so it looks like the flat side. It can go only one way or the four springs will rub on the flywheel bolts!

diaphram spring? What am i looking at? the yellow springs?

Yes! Note the purple paint from the factory. How can I pervent the FA or why does it happen?

My LS6 clutch new was lower than this LS7 clutch and I could still engauge it even with it adjusted forward even right before the swap.

Well for $360, we will see how it goes! I think 1 inch is pretty good, since some f-body guys engauge on the floor. I have not bleed my system yet either

14.0 @ 97mph with out the LT headers. I will be shooting for high 13s if I ever make it out to the track this year. I think I am there with the extra 25 rwhp I got from the headers!

Thats is all right I got my own vids. Thanks! This is what I made with it! - Dyno Vid

I bought them off of LS1tech from a guy named spanktu for $360 shipped! Not a bad deal since T56rebiulds has the same combo for $600

What did you think, I dropped a 505hp LS7 in the truck! :jest: I swaped my burnt up LS6 clutch setup for a LS2/LS7 clutch combo. I still need to put 500 miles on it before I get on it still. I also still need to bleed the hydrolics one more time. This clutch feels great! It is a bout 12lbs heavier, so I will see if I can feel that much. It grabs about an inch off of the floor and is really smooth. Hopefully this clutch last a little bit longer than my LS6 did. I don't think I will hot lap this one. Learned my lesson!

Thanks John!! Got it done in less than an hour tonight. I will drop it off at work thursday if I am in the area or after work if I get off in time! Thanks Again!

I would love to do the 6.0L swap just need the funds. Think the truck weighs 4700lbs, I can't remeber?! I shift about 5800! I did how ever miss a shift one time and it bounced off the 6200 limiter! I went from third to second going around 100mph. I bend two pushrods. Remember that Adam? Could that have done it? I am going to put in the LS2 flywheel, with the LS7 clutch and LS7 pressure plate!

I already have the LS7 sitting here and I got it all for juat under $400. $$$ is a big thing for me now! The master is a truck 5-speed from a 02 and the slave is from a 2002 vette! I have also done the "drill mod". After 700 miles I took it to COFBA track day and ran 26 times and beat the sh!t out of the truck. The last two runs I had smoke in the burn out box, but my slicks were not spinning! I also let Anthony and my fiance take it down the track too.

Alot of f-body guys are running the LS2/LS7 combo! It bolts right up as does the LS6 combo. As far as truck guys that have done the T56 swap every one is using differant brands. Specs and rams, but I think I am the only one using GM parts. I think I am the only one that is still NA.

I am putting down about 307hp and 340lbs and the rear wheels, but I also weigh alot more. I have a LS2 FW with a LS7 Clutch and pressureplate. I am also planing on a TR224 w112 and a maybe a lite head job. Maybe N20! What is SAC?

I have to get the truck back together first and will need some new back tires soon too! So what have you done lately to your car?

There is about a 3/8 of an inch still left till the rivets on both sides. I will try to find some one with a press and try that or should I say f-it and put in the lS2/LS7? Also the blue spots feel like they are lower than the other parts of the cerface area.

Found this info! Clutch pressure plate adjustment is only necessary when the driven (clutch) disc is worn and the pressure plate has compensated for the worn disc. Place the clutch pressure plate, flat surface down, on a press. Compress the pressure plate diaphragm spring fingers until tension is released from the stepped adjusting ring. Hold 2 screwdrivers or other suitable tools, and place them against 2 of the 3 stepped adjusting ring tension spring stops (1), just ahead of the adjusting ring tension springs. Using the screwdrivers, rotate the stepped adjusting ring counterclockwise (compressing the tension springs) until the adjusting ring steps are fully adjusted out, then continue to hold in position. Release the press pressure from the pressure plate diaphragm spring fingers. Release the adjusting ring tension spring stops. Remove the pressure plate from the press.

Not sure what you mean. Put the trany back in? Not sure I can see anything or get to the springs with the bell housing and trany back in? The throw out bearing is on the slave, right. I am just not picturing how it would press in the clutch if the trany is not bolted in. Added a pic of the clutch! http://pic14.picturetrail.com/VOL564/772744/5344526/170754950.jpg

Are you talking about resurfacing the flywheel and pressure plate? The clutch its self looks to be in great shape.

Just rust. All black in color and there is alot of clutch left. Clutch was slipping when I tried to spin over the tires and when I got on it is would some times rev then catch. Just did not feel the same anymore. Pedal was always lite feeling. So is this normal clutch wear and there could be something else wrong?

LS6 Clutch + 5.3L Truck + 18 Months + hot lapping at track 26 times and 50 miles of heavy street use every week, when there is nice weather = !!! :bang: So what do you think of the hot spots and the pressure plate fingers? I am replacing the LS6 combo with the LS2/LS7 combo! We will see how it goes! I also need a bigger garage! http://pic14.picturetrail.com/VOL564/772744/5344526/170715326.jpg http://pic14.picturetrail.com/VOL564/772744/5344526/170724629.jpg http://pic14.picturetrail.com/VOL564/772744/5344526/170724611.jpg http://pic14.picturetrail.com/VOL564/772744/5344526/170724641.jpg http://pic14.picturetrail.com/VOL564/772744/5344526/170715332.jpg

Good deal! I don't have the parts just yet, but I will probably be giving you a call in the near future, maybe this week end or next! Thanks

Anyone have one that I could barrow/use/buy for very cheep?

TTT!!!! NEED TO SELL! Truck needs a new clutch!!!
