Help Identifying ACT Clutch

I just received my new ACT clutch and the disc looks different from the picture on ACT's website. I ordered the XTSS = Xtreme Pressure Plate + Performance Organic Street disc
Here are pictures of the clutch I received.

Hopefully, someone has this combination and can confirm I got the right stuff. Thanks!

I have attached a picture and link from ACT showing the Performance Organic Street disc

That is the correct part number for the performance street disc, and it definately looks like what your picture shows.

Do you mean the disc or pressure plate? "Heavy Duty" is supposed to refer the pressure plate.

Did you notice that my disc has four springs and the one in the ACT pdf has six? Have you seen Performance Street discs that look like mine?

Apparently looks can be deceiving. I just got off the phone with ACT and it seems that the part numbers are correct.

XT = Xtreme Pressure Plate = MZ011X
SS = Performance Organic Street disc = 3000206

Thanks.

There is a small, faint 3 digit # stamped or etched into one of the diaphram fingers that ID's the pressure plate--what is it?

You have the real deal. The "133" indicates that the diaphram is the Xtreme version.

That's a fairly heavy plate, approx. 3,000# clamp load, so you may want to make sure you have the upgraded clutch fork in your tranny (to avoid certain future breakage and repair).



Oh yea, one more thing...

Most manufacturers use "representative" photos for their products--not necessarily depicting the exact item you're purchasing. So you cannot always go by the pics as a guide.
