The GM9-SPSS pairs an ACT Sport pressure plate with ACT's most popular Performance Street disc, sized for the LS1-equipped Camaro/Firebird/Corvette/GTO platform. The Sport pressure plate uses the same exclusive diaphragm design as ACT's other pressure plates for a moderate clamp load upgrade over stock, with a four-stage heat-treated diaphragm and precision-stamped cover. The Performance Street disc uses premium organic friction material with high copper content and a steel-backed lining, with reduced marcel for faster, quieter shift action.
