Your car isn't ''chipped'' and it doesn't have NJK plugs. Probably doesn't have a cam either. A stock LS1 motor will pull hard all the way to the rev. limiter.

If you're going Spec then go at least stage 3 or 3+.

What kind of tow bar do you have?

If you plan on keeping your car as it is now, very lightly modded, a spec clutch may be a bit overkill.

Lots of vendors have good prices, and even significant sales, on the LS7 clutch. This is a great clutch for street driving and occassional track visits, and it actually "feels" lighter than stock. I run this setup on my H/C car and it handles the power very well and if comfortable to drive everyday.
