Flywheel and Clutch Assembly Inspection for 2006 Chevrolet Corvette Vehicles Equipped with a 6.0L (LS2) or 7.0L (LS7) Engine and 6-Speed Manual
Transmission (MM6/MZ6)
There are six bolts that attach the clutch pressure plate cover to the flywheel. Only three of the six bolt holes on the flywheel have adjacent
locating pins. The flywheel has alternating deep and shallow flywheel rim steps. Some flywheels were produced with the locating pin adjacent to
the wrong step location. If the locating pins are next to the wrong bolt holes on the flywheel, the clutch cover ends up indexed improperly (off one
bolt hole), which may cause interference between the flywheel and the clutch pressure plate cover. Refer to the flywheel Inspection photographs
below before performing the flywheel Inspection procedure.
