Spec 16-18 Cadillac ATS-V Stage 2 Clutch Kit

This is the SPEC Stage 2 Clutch Kit, part number SC202-2V, specifically designed for the 2016 through 2018 Cadillac ATS-V. If you're looking to handle more power or want a more direct engagement from your manual transmission, this clutch kit is a solid option. It's built to handle increased torque and horsepower, making it a popular choice for ATS-V owners who have modified their vehicles or plan to.

The Stage 2 kit from SPEC features a high-performance friction disc and a robust pressure plate. The friction material is chosen for its ability to withstand higher temperatures and pressures compared to the stock clutch, which helps prevent premature wear and slippage when you're putting the engine to work. The pressure plate offers increased clamping force, ensuring a solid connection between the engine and the transmission under demanding conditions. This combination provides improved engagement and a more positive feel at the pedal, which can be beneficial for spirited driving or track use. SPEC is known for producing well-built drivetrain components, and this clutch kit is no exception, offering a balance of performance and durability for your ATS-V.

When installing a performance clutch kit like this, it's important to ensure your flywheel is in good condition or to replace it if necessary. You'll also want to consider replacing the pilot bearing and throw-out bearing, as these are wear items that are easily accessible during the clutch replacement process. Refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific details and recommended procedures to ensure a proper and long-lasting installation.
