Three oil passages inside the rocker shaft receive oil from an external spool valve (controlled by the ECU based mostly on throttle and rpm).
This is initiated by an electronically actuated oil spool valve, which send oil pressure to the lifter actuators, which then move the engagement pins into place above the valve stem, allowing the remaining two valves to open.
Despite the Multimatic system's (manufactured right here in Canada, by the way) advanced spool valve damping adjustment mechanism, Al Oppenheiser, the Camaro's chief engineer, says the DSSV system was chosen over the ZL1's Magnetic Ride Control mainly because it reduces weight.
The Multimatic system uses pre-tensioned spring - loaded spool valves that control the flow of oil in and out of the shocks.
The injectors feature new injector coils, new harness assemblies, a new electrical connector and a redesigned spool valve to help prevent stiction.
They are the first off - road shocks to feature position - sensitive spool valve technology, making the truck equally adept on and off the road.
During extreme off - road use, a third, piston - mounted spool valve delivers additional, uniquely tuned, compression damping.
Their aluminum bodies each house two spool valves providing both compression and rebound damping optimized for everyday driving.
Compared to deflected - disk valving common on most dampers, the ZR2 employs spool valves that offer increased precision and manufacturing repeatability along with enhanced ride and handling performance both on - and off - road.
This is also the first time spool valve shocks have been used in an off - road application.
