you can't shim parts at the factory, that's expensive.
In our world, we do it.

I was referring to shimming the slave and checking/cleaning the flywheel.There is no set up to installing a clutch.
The engagement point will not be higher.
Shimming the clutch moves it closer to the floor?
I think everything helps a little but but a lot of this stuff is just worn out or defective parts.
I should test stroke volume on gt vs 500 master. Wouldn't tell you much as I don't know slave piston area.
Been waiting to find a post like this. My issues are similar but different. Magnum xl swapped. Recently switched a McLeod rxt and new sc in the car and it feels so much sloppier for some reason. When the car gets hot, it’ll get “stuck” in whatever gear you’re in. And when you engage the clutch it doesn’t fully disengage and the car sill continue to roll. And it also HATES shifting at anything higher than 4.5k so I can’t hardly beat on the car without a missed shift. I never shimmed the sc when I put this new one in, so I’ll do that and 13-14 MC as well and see how that goes.
But why would it be inconsistent? That’s my only concern.Yep, I bet the shim is the issue. Clutch not fully disengaging would cause all the symptoms you describe.
I hate to bring this thing back from the dead but I noticed today if I double clutch 1-2 and 3-4 I have no issues with it falling into gear. What would that point to?
I just started a new job and have no time to get the clutch done just yet. Im about to take it off the road and put my 02 gt back on the road after I get it all back together. At least I can shift that one...
