I am very upset right now i was driving home from my buddies house and did a little burnout in front of my house only did second gear and didnt tach over 3000 now it wont disengage im thinkin it is the throwout bearing but i am extremly dissapointed right now regardless i am not exceeding the horsepower of this clutch by any means it is rated at 600 hp/1100ft lbs and i dont even think i am at 350 horse at the moment.

man thats no good, get under your truck and pull the two nuts off your hyd cyl and see if its stuck down there ive seen two that the hyd lock up easy fix too but get the hole kit if thats it so you dont have to bleed it, hopefuly its in easy fix and not the clutch

i can still push in the pedal so the hydraulics cant be messed up pedal pressure is the same as always

you might of blew out the hub on the disc...or bent a shift fork

i hope not i cant reall see it blowing out the hub it didnt go bang and i dont think its the fork since it wont release at all i guess ill see how good a warrantee these fellas have clutch only has 800 miles on it and about a month of use

heck if its that new i would take it to them

first thing in the morning they are getting a phone call from a very pissed off fella

hell yeah, I would be telling them to call a tow truck and pick it up

i was suppose to pick a lady friend up ini the morning and take her to school now im not sure what im going to do may have to take the old c10 shell love riding in a 43 year old pickup

dang man, that'll teach you to show off in front of your house....just kiddin im sure whoever put your clutch in will warentee the work and if you put it in yourself then there you go your doin the warentee work...

yeah my warrantee work is me but i want a new clutch im going to try and work something out to get a different clutch i was talking to lamar and he seems to think a full ceramic is not the best way to go says its prety easy to break inputs and gears when they lock that hard

dual disk 3600 plate load 6 button upgrade input shaft and you'll be fine

As for your clutch problems, You got it to hot, it "welded" the disc and pressure plate or disc and flywheel together. When you take it apart, you'll find one of the two if not both stuck together..A hammer will take good care of it. Or just drop it on the floor, it'll come apart. Not standing up for one clutch maker or another but it wasnt really the clutches problem, your essentially doing a boosted launch on a single disc. Creates alot of heat and friction. It's bound to happen.
