What is the break-in procedure for this Clutch Masters FX100 clutch kit?

Clutch Masters typically recommends a break-in period for their FX100 clutch kits. This usually involves driving gently for the first 500 miles, avoiding hard acceleration, aggressive shifting, and clutch slipping. Always refer to the specific instructions included with your kit for the most accurate procedure.

Does this clutch kit include a pilot bearing or alignment tool?

This Clutch Masters FX100 kit includes the clutch disc, pressure plate, and release bearing. It does not explicitly list a pilot bearing or alignment tool as included components. You may need to purchase these separately if they are not reusable from your original assembly.

What is the difference between the FX100 and other Clutch Masters series?

The FX100 series is designed as an upgraded performance clutch that offers a noticeable increase in clamping force and torque capacity over stock, while still maintaining reasonable drivability with a sprung hub disc. Other series may offer even higher torque capacity or different engagement characteristics.

About this part

Product Details

In this Clutch Masters FX100 clutch kit, you'll receive the clutch disc, pressure plate, and a release bearing. This kit is designed to replace the stock clutch assembly in your 2003-2007 Saturn ION with the 2.2L engine, your 2005-2009 Chevrolet Cobalt with the 2.2L or 2.4L engine, your 2006-2011 Chevrolet HHR, or your 2007-2009 Pontiac G5. If you're looking to upgrade from a worn-out factory clutch or want a more robust setup for your vehicle, this FX100 kit offers a solid step up in performance and longevity.

The FX100 clutch disc features a sprung hub, which helps absorb some of the shock and vibration that can be transmitted through the drivetrain, making for a smoother engagement than a rigid hub design. This is paired with a pressure plate that offers increased clamping force over the stock unit. This combination means the clutch can handle more power and torque without slipping, which is especially beneficial if you've made other modifications to your engine or if you simply want a clutch that feels more direct and responsive. The included release bearing is designed to work seamlessly with the new pressure plate, ensuring proper operation and longevity.

When installing this clutch kit, it's important to follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully. Proper break-in procedures are crucial for ensuring the longevity and performance of the new clutch disc and pressure plate. Typically, this involves a period of gentle driving without hard acceleration or slipping the clutch. This allows the friction surfaces to mate properly. If you're unsure about the installation process or the break-in period, consulting a professional mechanic is always a good idea.
