Just Released - Exedy, The OEM Supplier to the Cobalt, has released a Stage 1 - Organic Performance Clutch for the LS and LT model Chevy Cobalt!
Perhaps they are also working on a 2.0L
Why dont you do a search for SAAB Clutches as the engine is a SAAB..

here it is.....
Chris,
As Bernie mentioned, we will have Hyper Single (Stage 3) set up this Summer.
It comes with one piece lightweight chrome-moly flywheel, high torque capacity
sprung center 6-pac disc and forged aluminum cover with Nodular iron pressure
plate.
It will handle 320lbs-ft@ crank for drag, 540lbs-ft for circuit. This number is
after consideration of safety factor such as shock torque input by acceleration,
dumping the clutch in such.
As for the Time attack Cobalt GM built, they beat Evo, Impreza, NSX, GTR and
other cars at right after the SEMA last year. (November 2005).
If you have any question, just let us know.
Also if you register your info @ "www.exedyusa.com", we will send you
information such as new product release.
Best regards,
Kevin Fujioka

Just got this back from ACT:
Hello,
We currently do not offer any clutches for the Cobalt SS. We are
researching the parts now and have no E.T.A. for if and when the
products will be available. If you have any other questions, please feel
free to contact me.
Regards,
Richard Barzaghi

........ no luck yet, but they should come up with something.... i would personally get something from them before anyone else....

0-60 = 7.7 sec
Compression ratios are the same as the SS/SC @ 9.5:1
Bore x Stroke are the same @ 3.39 x 3.39 (both engines are "square" engines)
