Ok, so I'm getting a Hendrix Clutch/pressure plate. I've decided to go ceramic on one side, and organic on the other. (to not be obnoxiously grabby)
Thomas says it's of the LS7 type. I'm also getting a billet flywheel (same as Spec) which is 16 lbs. to go with it.
So here's some questions for the experts.......
1) Will I have to get a LS7 slave or can I use a LS6 slave?
I'm under the assumption that the LS7 slave will not need a spacer, but the LS6 will? What part numbers am I looking at here?
2) If spacer is needed, does anyone have the dimensions of one? (so I can get one machined) I need diameter, input shaft hole size, width, etc.
Or am I forced to buy the Katech one?
Also, does it go on the inside by the throwout bearing?
3) Has anyone heard of these guys? I wonder if they would just sell the slave by itself?

4) Where's the best place to buy the slave?
5) I've heard that a "notch" is needed, but some have said it's not....does it depend on which slave you use?
6) Does LAPD have the best remote bleeder?
7) Is it mandatory to change out the slave at all? Or is it just good insurance to change out since you are in there?
Sorry for all the questions.....I like to learn as much as I can before diving into installs. I figured with all the brilliant minds on here, we could eventually get some answers, and maybe bring up things that weren't thought of already. Thanks in advance!! :worship:
