Fits 2010, 2011, and 2012 Camaro SS with LS3 6.2L V8 and TR6060 6-speed manual transmission only — not for 2013+ Camaro SS.

Approximately 850 lb-ft peak torque capacity. Complete kit includes twin disc clutch assembly, Clutch Masters steel flywheel, and matched hydraulic release bearing (HRB). The top-tier Clutch Masters race clutch for high-power Camaro SS builds — forced induction, high-compression naturally aspirated race engines, and drag applications. 30 lbs.

Supercharged LS3 builds (Magnuson TVS2300, Whipple 2.9L, Edelbrock E-Force) in the 600–800+ whp range, turbo LS3 builds, high-compression N\/A race engines, and nitrous applications. If your build is projected to exceed 600–650 lb-ft at the flywheel, the 850 Series twin disc is the appropriate spec.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLower-stage single disc options:\u003c\/strong\u003e For lightly modified or street-driven Camaro SS builds (Stage 1 through FX400), a single disc clutch provides more linear street engagement with adequate torque capacity for most bolt-on modifications. Single disc options are better suited to daily-driven or dual-purpose builds where drive quality is a priority.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 850 Series twin disc is a dedicated race and high-power performance clutch. It is not recommended as a street-only replacement — twin disc engagement characteristics require driver adaptation and the kit is optimised for performance use rather than low-speed traffic engagement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTwin Disc System — How It Works and What to Expect\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwin disc (dual disc) clutch systems use two friction disc assemblies separated by a floater plate, all clamped between the flywheel and pressure plate:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigher torque capacity, lower pedal effort:\u003c\/strong\u003e Distributing clamping load across two friction surfaces doubles the effective friction area, allowing the 850 Series to handle significantly more torque than a single disc at equivalent or lower pedal effort than a single-disc clutch with comparable capacity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFaster engagement response:\u003c\/strong\u003e The twin disc system engages more quickly and decisively than a single disc at equivalent capacity — preferred for drag launches, track day starts, and race heel-toe downshifts where precise, rapid clutch action is critical.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEngagement feel — driver adaptation required:\u003c\/strong\u003e Twin disc clutches engage in a narrower window than street single disc clutches. The engagement is more “on\/off” in character, particularly at low speeds. Drivers transitioning from a stock or Stage 1\/2 clutch will need a short adaptation period to find the engagement point. This is standard for all twin disc systems — not a defect. Not recommended for drivers who require a forgiving street engagement feel.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeat management:\u003c\/strong\u003e The twin disc design distributes heat across two discs and the intermediate floater plate, improving thermal performance in sustained high-load use compared to a single disc at equivalent capacity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSteel Flywheel — Why Steel for This Application\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit includes a Clutch Masters steel flywheel (not aluminium).
