What is the main difference between this race disc and a stock clutch disc?

The 6-pad, spring-centered race disc is designed for faster shifting and can absorb more heat. However, engagement will be harsher compared to a stock clutch.

What makes the ACT Heavy Duty pressure plate different?

It uses an exclusive diaphragm design to increase clamp load and reduce deflection, which helps maximize clutch life. The diaphragms are also put through a four-stage heat-treating process.

Does this clutch kit come with all the necessary hardware for installation?

The manufacturer description does not specify if hardware is included. It is recommended to refer to the installation instructions or contact ACT for a detailed parts list.

Product Details

HD/Race Sprung 6 Pad

Z66-HDG6 kit features ACT's most popular Heavy Duty pressure plate. ACT Heavy Duty pressure plates use exclusive diaphragm design to increase clamp load, reduce deflection and maximize clutch life. All diaphragms endure a four-stage, heat-treating process for unparalleled performance. ACT pressure plates have precision cover stampings to provide rigidity and consistency. ACT's 6-pad, spring-centered race disc features a spring-center to properly damp torsional vibrations and resist failure under harsh conditions. ACT spring retainers utilize wraparound spring windows and thicker retainer stampings to provide spring support, reduce stress concentrations, and increase strength and reliability. With the 6-pad, spring-centered race disc, engagement is harsher, but shifting is faster. The 6-pad, spring-centered disc is recommended for larger clutch sizes to absorb more heat.
