I just got my Spec Stage 2+ installed, but I'm not exactly sure what is the best way to break in a new clutch? This is my DD, but I do like 90% highway to work. Anyone have some good advise?

Also, it seems to be very hard to get it into reverse, kinda like it doesn't want to go in at all unless I force it in. Is this normal for a clutch until it's broken in?

 

no, shift cables may need adjusting...and did you install a new OEM slave cylinder/release bearing...not a lot of success on this forum it would appear with the spec clutch stuff. Dont shoot the messenger...drive it normally thats all the break in you need. Normally= NO slam/power/fast shifts, NO jack rabbit drag strip launches etc...good luck

 

I installed the GM OEM bearing, which I got from CED. Otherwise, it grabs and drives fine except for Reverse being a bitch and not wanting to go in.

 

Drive nice for AT LEAST 500 miles, dont open it up for around 1,000 miles, it should be well done after that
