F23 Quaife LSD install
#127
There are no "performance" shops anywhere near me that will install a customer provided clutch and pressure plate and then do anything but blame the parts and then I'm stuck paying labor twice. For reference, when I took the guy that did my LSD install for a ride to show him the new obvious drivetrain noise he tried to convince me it was an exhaust rattle.
Sorry I took your comment which basically said "you probably fucked up installing it because of your lack of ability" as negative. Though I fail to see how that could be positive in any way.

If you got all of that out of what I wrote, No one can help you. Did you bother looking at any of the other items I posted that could be causing it? Such as a small bit of conduit or something sandwiched between the case and engine block. Misalignment can cause this.

I'll inspect transmission housing mate to the block again and look for gaps. Otherwise I would think if I had something holding the flywheel out of square it would weeble-wobble at high rpm. I guess the only thing to do now is either get through the season shifting from first to second at lower rpm or tear down and inspect everything very carefully before deciding it is the clutch assembly. I did go out and try some high rpm shifts and it definitely improved. I don't think my rev hang is helping anything. Probably wouldn't even notice it without the rev hang.

I dont really feel like reading the last few pages but ill explain how I bleed the clutch.
Just use the mightyvac you ordered to put vacuum on the bleeder screw and crack the bleeder, keep constant vac on it until there are no more bubbles and watch the fluid level to make sure the reservoir stays full.

when i bled my clutch i used the mityvac bleeder. Put ~15 hg/in for 10 minutes. then pumped the clutch 4-5 times. it firmed up after 2 pumps.
then put another 15 hg/in for another 10 minutes. and then it's been fine since.

you could also pull a brake resevoir cap off a cobalt at the u pull and drill a hole and add a vacuum port. I was going to do that before realizing he had the bleeder cap for cobalts already.

As you can see in the video below I did this as well though I used a rubber stopper instead of a dedicated cap. Should yield the same end result though.
BTW, I went by the transmission shop and got a "professional" opinion about the car inching forward, when in gear, with the clutch pedal fully depressed, and revving to high rpms and he thought that could be normal. I don't really think it is but would anyone in here that also has 7.5-8k redline mind trying it with their vehicle just to put that theory to bed? I'd hate to take this all apart and put in a different clutch for nothing.

Yeah the one on top of the trans. You'd know if you had a leak, i had a small one cause I bought OTTPs braided clutch cable and it wasn't seated correctly. fluid went everywhere when I pressurized the tank lol

I just have a line coming from I assume the master cylinder though I have never traced it all the way back. That line plugs into the transmission and is held with a C-clip. It isn't leaking or I would be low on fluid. Thinking something is dickered. If I drop the trans again I think I am going to go ahead and replace the master cylinder because I have been noticing every-time I take the brake res cap off there is some sort of black schmoo floating on the top.

Found a thread where someone was having this exact same issue except with an SS. They replace the clutch and the trans so they never really verified what caused it. Almost tempted to throw my KY back in there and cross my fingers.
