Clutch swap for V6 M6 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

THinking about a different clutch (once my warranty is out) for my V6 M6. I notice it slips like crazy, and is just not very solid.

What does everyone recommend for a performance clutch?

Don't know if this is compatible with your 2015, but is this best rated aftermarket I'm aware of for the V6 at this time- http://www.jegs.com/i/RAM+Clutches/7...FQmVfgodGDkKJQ

Holy cow! Is that the only option?

Don't mean to bump a thread that hasn't had much response but OP have you gone with the ram unit yet? I've heard a lot of good things about this clutch especially for those running FI. The listing on the link says 2010-2012 camaros I assume it would fit a 13-15 v6 as well right?

I have not done anything yet, as I am still under warranty. Just getting ideas

I'm also curious if 2010-2012 clutches fit the 2013+ cars. Anyone know this info?

Confirmed- just Remembered Sycraft (of Hot Blown Six fame) was one of the first to get a Ram and his car was a LFX.

See here http://www.superchevy.com/how-to/ght...ystem-install/

He has always commented that the clutch has worked very well.

There was another article detailing that install as well... I'll look around, thought I saved it for future reference!

I've heard nothing but good things from sy about the ram unit as well. However I went online and couldn't find it so I emailed them and the person that responded had no idea what I was talking about? Could have just been some one not knowledgeable ?

Here it is on Ram's website- http://www.ramclutches.com/dualapp.html

And yes, I think you got an unknowledgeable person...

Ah thanks vent master! What's the difference between the 9.5 900 series and the 9.5 dual?

I think the 75-2105N has a higher load capacity- at a slightly higher price of course!

Gotcha thanks vent master I'll check with ram before I order

Sounds very newbie but, which one would you all recommend just for normal driving Besides the oem clutch? Also, anything else needs to be replaced once I take it to someone to install?
