new brand of clutch coming in june :)
ACT is in the process of developing a clutch kit for the f35 tranny, hopefully these will be like the rest of their kits and they will sell a stronger pressure plate to work with the stock disk.. anyways, here the email i got back today:
Sam,
Thank you for your email and interest in ACT products. Unfortunately we currently do not offer anything for your application, though we are working on one. I just spoke to my R&D department and they informed me that we should have kits available by the end of June for the 05-06 Cobalt SS models. Pricing has yet to be determined and will not be until we get into the final stages of design. If you have any further inquiries please feel free to contact me directly.
Regards, XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

hopefully they will offer an upgraded pressure plate only, those things are kick ass and cheap. should be less than $300 for a PP, about 35% more clamp load on a stock disk and it should hold about 250tq. the majority of people will never go above that and the stock disk will keep the chatter away

What do you mean eff that? The exedy kit comes with a billet pressure plate, nice 6 puck sprung disk, and a light cromoly flywheel for around $1100 shipped! That sounds like a ******* deal to me! Tell me how many other clutches for the SS even come with a billet pressure plate or remotely compare to it's quality. On top of that what clutch is the only one I've never heard a failure on for the SS's? Exedy, and that's it! Thus, the reason I own one as well.
ACT does make great stuff though, so I hope it works out well for them!

It's not expensive if you look at what you get. Spec clutch alone is $500-$700 for the ss/sc, add a flywheel for $400 and pressure plate $xxx and you're above $1100 for the exedy clucth kit with everything, not just the clutch

the clutch disk and pressure plate are part of the $500 cost. add in $275 for a flywheel and you have a clutch/flywheel for almost $400 less than an exedy
