Need help!!

I’ve lost all hope in searching, I have a v6 with the M6 and as far as I know the 2.0 and the 3.6 share the same transmission. My clutch already went out on my car and there’s no replacement other than oem.. has anyone replaced their clutch yet and if so what type of clutch is it? Thanks in advance!

What did you do to the poor thing?

Phastek Performance? Depending on your area, Google for a GM performance shop. I know that sounds smart-ass and but in all seriousness, there is a shop I found near where I live. (Buford, GA) This place is called LSX Performance. They specialize on builds for GM vehicles but they are super cool and informative.

Someone may have an alernative / recommendation.

Good Luck, that is rough about your car tho...

The car is FBO and tuned with a higher redline than stock so shifting at the higher rpm really took a toll on the oem clutch.. I’m not gonna lie either I do drive it pretty hard every weekend, I’ve had it tuned like this since around 4K miles so it’s been taking a beating the entire time getting to 21k miles.. never thought that I wouldn’t be able to find a replacement clutch though

ZZP in the Cadillac ats/cts section. They have a hevy duty clutch for your set up.

looking at some parts-store style websites, it appears that the 2.0 and 3.6 share a disc, but have different part numbers for the pressure plate and flywheel. i cannot say for sure if our pressure plate will bolt up to a 3.6 flywheel, but it appears that the disc will work. not sure how much help that is.

Do you guys think I can re-use my pressure plate but just replace the clutch disc with the zzp aftermarket one? I would think it would work fine since the pressure plate is relatively new still (21k miles on it)

Don't skimp on the flywheel bolts either!!
This is just my opinion OFC, the car is yours..

Thank you for the wise words, I may just end up tearing the car down and taking the entire assembly out to send to a manufacturer and have them duplicate it all at once to save the headache as you said!

Both SPEC and Centerforce make clutches for the LTG. They list them for the ATS. Obviously they haven't updated to include the Camaro, which has the same drivetrain.
