SS Clutch. Single or twin disk
I've done a bit of research and haven't seen anything definitive about whether the clutch for the T-6060 in the Gen6 SS is a single disk or twin disk configuration.
Does anyone have any info or links on the subject? TIA |

I would be shocked if they put a twin disk on a standard Camaro SS

It comes with a twin in it. It also has a dual mass flywheel. Its a stupid combination, a twin and a dual mass flywheel make for awful low speed, low rpm drivability. Has anyone one noticed the cars tendency to stall during very low speed driving like when your idling and easing the clutch in order to either creep or very slowing take off, that's one of the side affects. Its also a heavy combo.
I replaced mine with Centerforce's new twin and lightweight flywheel, better and smoother engagement, engine revs quicker and no more stalling issue at low speeds, actually bumper to bumper drivability is greatly improved. As you can gather I am not a fan of the stock clutch, but I also am not staying stock for long so I upgraded. Here are pics are of the stock clutch and the Centerforce on a scale.

If it were not a dual mass flywheel you would be correct. The New Centerforce twin is heavy enough that I can idle around a parking lot or in bumper to bumper traffic without giving it any gas and it does not stall. With the original it would stall at random times as the clutch was engaging at idle speeds. I have been driving a manual for more than 30 years and I was initially blaming the calibration from GM it was stalling so often unless I gave it more gas than I felt I needed to. When we pulled it apart and found the dual mass flywheel and a twin disc set up it all made sense. No more stalling, much better pedal feel and slightly lighter pedal.

Retail on it is $2315.00, its up to your CenterForce dealer as to what he sells it to you for. The CenterForce dealer I used made me a smoking deal on mine as it was the first production clutch they built for the 6th Gen. I have over 2k miles on it now and really like everything about it. Huge improvement over stock. It also came with a build sheet, specs and a clutch dyno sheet showing it held 1340 ft lbs of torque.
I am currently installing heads, cam, long tubes and a Magnuson supercharger as well.

Clutch in my zl1 is pretty badass. I run it hard 15k so far. Personally not a centerforce fan. I am a McLeod and spec fan

Yup, def a twin disc stock. Here is pics of mine after 17k miles, 7k with a whipple making 600+ rwhp and 50+ passes on it at the track. Still in pretty good shape. Waiting on my McLeod to ship to put it back together, they have been behind since early December. I had to pull the trans because it locked up one day and could not move the shifter. Turns out the 2 round magnets in the bottom of the trans came loose and got chewed up in the trans jamming it up. Trans is fixed and figured I would put a better clutch in it since it was apart.
