Default SAME
Denny,

don't feel bad... I am chasing the EXACT same situation with 1st, Reverse - with the exact same new 12" McLeoad clutch disc and pressure plate. Mine too works fine cold, then starts acting up when it gets to operating temp. I will be checking these next...

1. Revisit the bellhousing alignment procedure / Lakewood?
2. New 12" McLeod Clutch disc getting stuck on splines when hot, not sliding - tight tolerance between the input/disc splines?
3. New input shaft collar too long, smashing into clutch disc hub, and expanding just enough when it's hot?

Man, I don't want to take this back apart at the moment...
