it is not a bleed problem...we bled the system better than gm recommends...it is a design problem

is this a problum that ALL aftermarket clutch's are going to suffer??

are all the stifer clutch's going cause such problums????

is everybody haveing problums with there aftermarket clutchs???

 

I don't seem to be having these problems, but I've never taken it to a track either. I definently don't have the issues Dan is describing.

 

The not being able to speedshift and grinding...most likely since it seems the stock system is inadequate to actuate an upgraded clutch

dam thats funny....

the 2 other guys i know that have aftermarket clutch's dont have this problum BUT the issue's hes talking about as far as the lines flexing and sich i can totaly see as a possibility.

 

I left my stock slave cyliner in so it eliminates that.


For you guys that don't think you have a problem, try this, first put the into 1st or 2nd gear with the clutch depressed and rev the motot to 6K + and see if it tries to move at all.

Then go out and rev to 7K rpm and shift so fast that your hand is a blur! I mean beat on it. Then tell me if you shift perfect into 2nd everytime w/o a problem. I bet million bucks you'll have a problem.

 

So are you saying "don't change the slave cylinder?"

 

it has been changed and left the same and problems have been had both times.

i will not buy an aftermarket clutch until these problems are resolved, sorry to hear about all the probs everyone is having.

 

I had the 1-2 problem with the stock clutch near 7K the other day, wouldn't go into second w/o the rpm dropping below 6K, just glad i didn't release the clutch or it would have been messy. This was the first time i really ran out 1st gear in the car.

Changed my mind... I'm just going to sell the clutch for now, I have other things I need more. Anyone interested in a CM FX400 Clutch, UNUSED, still in the original package, unscathed... PM Me. Asking is $500, but if you have any better offers I'll go with them.
