The ACT Extreme Race Sprung 6 Pad Clutch Kit for the Ford Mustang (96-01) is a high-performance clutch assembly designed for demanding driving conditions. Featuring an Xtreme pressure plate, this kit enhances clamp load, reduces deflection, and extends clutch life through an exclusive diaphragm design. The pressure plate undergoes a four-stage heat-treating process to ensure durability and consistent performance, while precision cover stampings provide added rigidity. The included 6-pad spring-centered race disc is engineered to deliver optimal damping and engagement characteristics, making it suitable for aggressive street and track use. This assembly is built with high-quality materials to withstand extreme conditions and provide reliable power transfer.

Designed specifically for 1996 to 2001 Ford Mustangs, this clutch kit is compatible with various engine configurations within that model range. It serves as a direct replacement upgrade for stock clutch components, offering improved holding capacity and responsiveness for high-performance applications. The kit is ideal for street, strip, or track driving, where enhanced durability and engagement are critical. Installation involves bolt-on replacement of the existing clutch system, and the kit includes all necessary components for a complete upgrade. Proper fitment and performance are ensured for Mustang owners seeking a reliable, race-ready clutch solution.

Overview

ACT XT/Race Sprung 6 Pad Kit

FM8-XTG6 kit features an Xtreme pressure plate for the most demanding driver. ACT Xtreme pressure plates use exclusive diaphragm design to increase clamp load, reduce deflection and maximize clutch life. All diaphragms endure a four-stage, heat-treating process for unparalleled performance. ACT pressure plates have precision cover stampings to provide rigidity and consistency. ACT's 6-pad spring-centered race disc features a spring-center construction to properly damp torsional vibrations and resist failure under harsh conditions. ACT spring retainers utilize wraparound spring windows and thicker retainer stampings to provide spring support, reduce stress concentrations, and increase strength and reliability. With the 6-pad spring-centered race disc, engagement is harsher, but shifting is faster. The 6-pad spring-centered disc is recommended for larger clutch sizes to absorb more heat.
