6L80 Performance Transmission 4-5-6 Clutch Kit - Level 3

CDT456L3/80-P 6L80 Level 3, 4-5-6 Transmission Clutch Kit for Maximum Performance

• (7) Alto G3® Clutches
• (9) Heat-Treated Steels (varying thicknesses)
• (1) Stepped Apply Plate
• (1) Wide Backing Plate
• (1) Snap Ring
• (2) Hi-Per Blue® Bonded Pistons

CDT456L3/80 offers 50% more clutch apply area than stock. G3® friction material is formulated to achieve minimal wear and maximize heat resistance. Our steels are heat-treated and cooled in air, producing a stable and consistent plate that resists warping and ensures smooth clutch operation. This process improves durability and promotes even wear when paired with premium friction materials. Hi-Per Blue® Pistons are manufactured with upgraded High Performance Blue AEM material for superior thermal and chemical resistance, with better fit and performance.

The 6L80 Level 3, 4-5-6 Clutch Kit (CDT456L4/80-P) is engineered for high-performance applications that demand greater torque and heat capacity. This heavy-duty 6L80 transmission clutch kit delivers 50% more clutch apply area than stock clutches, significantly enhancing transmission performance while reducing the risk of clutch failure in demanding environments.

For maximum reliability and longevity in any high-stress application, this clutch kit is your go-to solution.

Premium Clutch Components for Enhanced Durability

This transmission clutch kit includes seven G3® clutches, nine heat-treated steels (varying thicknesses), one stepped apply plate, one wide backing plate, one snap ring, and two Hi-Per Blue® bonded pistons. The G3® friction materials are formulated for maximum heat resistance and durability, helping to prevent excessive wear and clutch failure. The heat-treated steels undergo a heat treatment process to harden the steel, significantly reducing wear and extending the clutch’s lifespan. Additionally, the Hi-Per Blue® pistons are made with advanced AEM material, offering better thermal and chemical resistance while improving fit and overall performance.

Required Parts for Proper Installation

To use this clutch kit, the CDT Billet 4-5-6 clutch hub and intermediate shaft (CDT part number 104680-45-P) are required. These parts are not included in the kit and must be purchased separately to ensure proper fitment and functionality. The billet hub and intermediate shaft replace weaker stock components, preventing common failures such as spline shearing and clutch hub breakage. By combining this clutch kit with the necessary billet parts, you can optimize your transmission’s strength, reliability, and performance, whether on the street or track.
