When i put the LS engine T56 g,box in my Tuscan I re used the AP cover, but used 2 bronze matalic paddle driven plates
it is OK on the street but i would like something, that makes parking and town driving easier
what are the options
1 put organic plates in the AP clutch pack
2 fit a chevy clutch
3 other

I know Steve heath used the AP TVR clutch, on quite a few conversions, just wondered how these cars stood the test of time

How much power are you running ? Ls7 clutch takes some beating they will take 600 bhp ok std ls2 clutch will take 450 ok and be smooth , light and quite, and cheap !! I've got loads of flywheels etc if you need one

Thanks
am going to run 440 HP max as that is were i am happy driving the car,
I think once you start going for big horses you either need to be a good driver, or you just never floor the go peddle

I will need a flywheel as mine has been machined to take
8 1/2 AP cover

Will call

Organic with a marcel strip are hard to beat when you want progressive pedal action and a smooth bite. Ls7 clutch would be perfect.
