16-20 Camaro 2.0L FX350 Clutch Kit - Clutch Masters

FITS 2016-2020 CAMARO ( LS/LT MODELS )

DESCRIPTION:

Upgrade the clutch holding capability of your 2016-2020 Chevrolet Camaro 2.0L Turbo 6-speed manual with the Clutch Masters 04302-HDFF-X FX350 Clutch Kit. Designed for serious street enthusiasts and weekend racers, the FX350 combines Clutch Masters' Power Plus I High-Leverage Heavy-Duty Pressure Plate with a segmented Fiber-Tough friction disc to provide a manufacturer-rated 110% increase in holding capacity while maintaining street-oriented drivability. Positioned as a more aggressive alternative to the FX300, the FX350 uses Clutch Masters' proprietary Fiber-Tough friction material. Clutch Masters states that the FX350 has slightly greater holding capability than the FX300, but that increased performance comes with slightly more aggressive engagement and the possibility of some clutch chatter. This makes the FX350 particularly well suited to performance-oriented Camaro builds where increased torque capacity takes priority over completely factory-like engagement. The FX350 clutch disc uses steel-backed segmented Fiber-Tough friction material. The segmented design concentrates the friction surface and is engineered to provide substantial holding capability while maintaining the durability and street characteristics Clutch Masters developed the Fiber-Tough material to deliver. The company describes the material as helping bridge the traditional compromise between durability, longevity, and drivability in high-performance clutch systems. Clutch Masters equips the FX350 disc with a heavy-duty sprung hub when applicable, along with a Marcel spring wafer. These components help manage drivetrain shock and provide more progressive engagement than a rigid-hub competition clutch while retaining the positive engagement characteristics expected from a higher-capacity performance clutch. The 04302-HDFF-X is designed for serious street enthusiasts who may also spend weekends at the track. Clutch Masters recommends the FX350 for highly tuned naturally aspirated vehicles with modifications such as cylinder head and camshaft work, medium-boost turbocharged or supercharged combinations, and applications using up to a 100-horsepower nitrous system. This combination makes the FX350 particularly relevant to modified Camaro 2.0L Turbo builds. While the Camaro is already turbocharged from the factory, increased boost, tuning, fueling upgrades, and supporting engine modifications can substantially increase torque beyond the capabilities of the original clutch. The FX350 provides a performance-oriented solution for owners who need greater clutch capacity while still intending to use their Camaro on the street. Clutch Masters includes an OEM-quality-or-better release bearing, pilot bearing when applicable, alignment tool, instruction card, and decals with the standard FX350 package. The manufacturer also notes that clutch service life depends on factors including installation quality, driving style, performance upgrades, break-in procedure, and lightweight flywheel use. For this Camaro application, the FX350 is an upgrade clutch kit that requires the compatible Clutch Masters flywheel, sold separately. The matching FW-302-AL Lightweight Aluminum Flywheel is the applicable flywheel for the Camaro 2.0L Turbo drivetrain package. The slave cylinder is also not included with the clutch kit. For 2016-2020 Camaro 2.0L Turbo owners looking for a stronger street/track clutch with more aggressive engagement than the FX300, the Clutch Masters 04302-HDFF-X FX350 delivers an excellent combination of 110% increased holding capacity, Fiber-Tough friction material, a heavy-duty pressure plate, sprung-disc construction, and performance-oriented street drivability.

Important Notes

• Clutch Masters categorizes the FX350 as a STREET/RACE clutch system.
• Clutch Masters specifically states that the FX350 may produce some clutch chatter. This should be considered normal for the more aggressive performance-oriented design rather than automatically interpreted as a clutch defect.
• Actual clutch suitability should be based primarily on engine torque and intended use rather than horsepower alone.
• Actual clutch life is affected by installation quality, driving style, performance modifications, break-in procedure, and lightweight flywheel use.
• Proper clutch break-in should be completed before hard launches, racing, dyno pulls, or other high-load operation.
• Do not assume compatibility with the factory dual-mass flywheel or another manufacturer's aftermarket flywheel.
