What is the break-in procedure for this multi-plate clutch kit?

Multi-plate clutches require a specific break-in period to ensure the plates seat properly. Refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions included with the kit for the recommended mileage and driving conditions for break-in.

Does this kit include all the necessary components for installation?

This kit includes the multi-plate clutch disc, pressure plate, and a steel flywheel. It is designed to be a complete clutch replacement. However, it's recommended to inspect and potentially replace the pilot bearing and release bearing while the transmission is out.

How does the sprung hub design benefit my driving experience?

The sprung hub in the clutch disc contains springs that help to dampen torsional vibrations and shock loads from the engine and drivetrain. This results in a smoother engagement and can make the clutch feel more comfortable for daily driving compared to a solid-hub design.

About this part

Product Details

The Clutch Masters 850 Series Street Clutch Kit is built around a sprung, multi-plate design, featuring a solid steel flywheel for robust engagement. This kit is specifically engineered for the 2007-2008 Acura TL Type-S with the 3.5L V6 engine and 6-speed manual transmission. If you're looking to handle increased power or simply want a more durable and responsive clutch for your Type-S, this kit offers a significant upgrade over the stock unit.

This 850 Series kit utilizes a multi-plate setup, which means it has more surface area to handle torque and heat. The sprung hub design in the clutch disc helps absorb some of the driveline shock, making it more comfortable for daily driving than a solid-hub setup. The included steel flywheel is a solid piece, designed for durability and to work seamlessly with the multi-plate clutch. Clutch Masters is known for their well-built clutch components, and this kit is no exception, aiming to provide reliable performance for modified vehicles or those that see spirited driving.

When installing this kit, it's important to follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully. Proper break-in procedures are crucial for multi-plate clutches to ensure longevity and optimal performance. This kit is designed as a complete replacement for your existing clutch system, including the flywheel, pressure plate, and clutch disc. Ensure your pilot bearing and release bearing are in good condition, as these are often replaced at the same time as the clutch.
