I was wondering if any of you guys can help a friend of mine out.
Does anyone know of a reputable local shop that can do a clutch install? Someone that you have had a good experience with. Thank you very much for any help you can give. :bow:
PS What is the best clutch for the dollar?

Not sure about local since your in Miami and I am more in the Orlando area, but I just had a new clutch put in about a month ago and it cost $685 for a new stock clutch (LT1), smoothing of the flywheel, new fluids, etc. About the same price I was quoted by everyone else. Hope this helps

WOW! $685.00 Do it your self and if you have any questions, ask us or consult the hanes manual for the car. It takes about 1 1/2hr to do it. But maby it's just me. By the way, this is my 600th post :D

Labor was only $285 of that-the rest was the clutch, flywheel, etc. Not a bad price I didn't think-both my brother and dad are pretty good at working on cars, but didnt really want to touch the clutch-they've torn engines apart before, but thought a clutch would be tough. If you have the means to do so then I'd say go for it-but personally it was worth the labor for me to get it done in one day and have a 1 year warranty on it.

Ok Erik, now it dosent seem so bad. 2-300 bucks in labor plus the year warranty isn't a bad deal.
