Stage 3 Question

I have an 06 ss/sc stage 2, i am curious, my clutch is perfectly fine, no slipping at all with stage 2, if i want to go to stage 3, will the stock clutch hold up with that? Any known issues? Anyone at stage 3 with the stock clutch?

Not tryn to be rude just staten whats gonna happn.. look at it this way you'll have street cred now when your stg 3 sounds meaner

Same here.

When I was straight GMS3 my clutch held fine. I still run the GMS3 PCM & pulley, but have a different blower & more bolt-ons/power. It still holds fine.

The stock clutch can take a beating. The people who claim it slips, and are at power levels well under 300whp, are the people who need to learn how to drive.

Or who bought there car used .

It has also been shown the stock clutch will glaze if your always shifting at 2k.

True.

A high mileage/abused clutch will start to cause problems no matter what power level you're at.

I should have clarified my statement, and explained that anyone running a stock clutch in good condition/lower mileage, and claiming it slips at power levels below 300whp needs to learn how to drive.
