I do not know what kind of discs I have, what I can tell you is that I have a special "re-inforced" clutch because of the very powerfull engine. This special clutch comes from "levyracing", it was installed by the first owner to replace the initial one which was not strong enough for the engine.

The problem I have arises when the engine is hot. Sometimes when I pass the first gear the car has great difficulty to move on, and some other times it works normally.
Sometimes when I m driving at 100/120 mph, or less, I accelerate, the engine accelerate too, but not the car, and after the engine calms itself and the car starts to accelerate.
So the clutch realy seems to slide...

Any idea ???

Thanks

Emmanuel
