My d*"m clutch is slipping again!!! Advice???

[67JET]

I just drove my car for the first time since the rebuild started. I know i have a lot to go but i thought i was passed the clutch set-up phase. This hydraulic throw out bearing is pissing me off. Either it's to loose and i ain't got one or it's too tight and it slips when i give it a little gas. I went to an 11" centerforce thinking it was the best option for my car. I tried using a external slave cylinder but i didn't have enough room for the clutch fork in the trans tunnel. I would never put an auto in it but.......NO NEVER!!! I guess i will need some of ya'lls expert advice on a hydraulic throw out bearing set-up.

It is imperative to have the right clearance at set up time. A very useful tool for this can be purchased from Speedway Motors. It makes it simple to get the right clearance.

Thanks John. I looked at the tool. your right -- pretty simple. I just got finished putting it all back together. Took 3 shims out and it looks good. I'll have to wait till tomorrow to test it out.The neighbors wouldn't appreciate me cranking it up at 1:00am.
