    Just my point "Dealership" one even as a shirt on of one. I would think he should know the smell difference of tire vs. Clutch. Then again the driver what didn't drop the clutch around 4 grand or so, I'm sure it lite those tires up.

    Will those clutches FEEL like a stock clutch in the Corvette? No, they won't. I'm familiar with the Centerforce clutches, i've run them in a few turbo hondas. (lol torque is what?)

    My apologies. I didn't realise that we were taking the performance aftermarket items into consideration here, since you were just talking about rock auto and autozone before. But now that we've switched gears (tee hee hee) and are talking about the performance corner of the market:

    Carry on.

    Guess who makes stock replacements for the Z06? RAM. In fact, Rock Auto stocks as the OEM replacement RAM clutch kits for the Z06. But JEGS and Summit have better prices on the same model number. Tee hee. :rolleyes:

    Maybe they were trying to make him look silly so they could post it on YouTube?

    Then I should give them a pass, but they are still an idiot.

    Er, ok? Nobody is taunting you. Read the post again. I retracted my previous statements, and apologized for not knowing that we were taking performance aftermarket clutches into the equation. (Centerforce.)

    But, whatever, i guess? :confused:

    Er, ok? I'm unsure why you quoted my post in that one... that doesn't make any sense as a reply to me. I think you may have misread my post. I'm not taunting anybody, that was a post where i retract my previous statements and apologize for not knowing that we were talking about performance aftermarket clutch.

    But, whatever, i guess? :confused:

    Because genius, the RAM clutch kit is an OEM replacement. It's not aftermarket. It's what came on the car to begin with.

    I gathered that, professor. :rolleyes:

    Hence why i used CENTERFORCE as the example in my post, much as you did. I didn't comment on RAM, since they're marketed (as you said) by Rockauto as an OEM replacement.

    Stop trying to make a mountain out of a molehill. I wasn't out to start anything, i promise you that.
