Frequently Asked Questions
What makes this 6L80 transmission clutch kit more reliable than stock clutches?
This heavy-duty 6L80 clutch kit includes upgraded friction components manufactured with G3® material, providing 50% more clutch apply area and enhanced torque and heat capacity. The superior materials and design significantly reduce clutch plate failure under high-stress conditions.
How does the Hi-Per Blue® piston kit improve transmission performance?
The Hi-Per Blue® piston kit uses advanced AEM material that withstands extreme temperatures and chemical exposure. Its improved fit ensures more consistent clutch engagement and better overall transmission performance in demanding applications.
What is the benefit of heat treatment on the steel plates?
Our 4-5-6 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.
Can this clutch kit withstand high torque and heat in racing or towing conditions?
Yes. Designed for applications where high torque and heat are a factor—like racing, towing, or off-roading—this clutch kit features superior materials and engineering to withstand high stress and deliver consistent performance without clutch failure.
Why is CDT’s billet 4-5-6 clutch hub and intermediate shaft required with this kit?
The CDT billet hub and shaft (part number 104680-45-P) is required. The required 45-tooth clutch plates are not included with this Clutch Module and must be purchased separately. 104680-45-P billet shaft is designed specifically to work with 45-tooth clutch plates, ensuring optimal performance and durability in high-powered applications.
