Default New slipping clutch

Well I put a new clutch in with my motor. It was a stage I Pro Clutch. I also put in a new flywheel while I was at it. Stock type not lightened. All surfaces were cleaned with brake clean and install went very well I thought. New pilot and Throw out bearing. I bled it the best I could. Now the pedal feels lighter than before and it seems to melt into 2nd gear on a hard shift insted of chip the tires and bang hard. Any ideas?

I just emailed the guy at www.proclutch.com

Try adjusting your clutch pedal... That's the first easy thing I can think of.... Good luck!

I had never heard of Pro Clutch until now, either way if it is a cable tranny, try adkusting the cable screw, happened to me, would not move and it was the cable.

Check the clutch master cylinder or the slave cylinder if these are bad they could cause the slipping.

Why did you bleed the hydro system If it was working ok...you wouldn't have to.
It's not the clutch IMO...if the pedal feels lighter it has something to do with your hydraulic's

I did break it in. Semnos I installed the clutch when I install the new motor so it all came out and I had to bleed it. Now I'm fucked.
