McLeod told him to reinstall it until it wasn't working any more. He raced it quite a while after that... Never have had it happen with mine, and I've been through 3 disc's now. IF you do want to fix it, send the clutch to Tim Hyatt. After he reworked my clutch, it has been the best it has ever been. Mine will go back to him before going back to McLeod.

I`m getting the "failure is normal" vibe from the soft-lok bunch. 5757059-disc.jpg (57 downloads) 70` Cuda`,440 6BBL Jerico,Dana 4.56 Still on 93 Pump Gas 9.87 @ 136/1.31-60ft.`09 Mopar Nationals PASSON PERFORMANCE "Stick-Shift" Champ! 2013 StickShift Challenge Winner@ Mopar Nationals!

So thats what I will do for now. 70` Cuda`,440 6BBL Jerico,Dana 4.56 Still on 93 Pump Gas 9.87 @ 136/1.31-60ft.`09 Mopar Nationals PASSON PERFORMANCE "Stick-Shift" Champ! 2013 StickShift Challenge Winner@ Mopar Nationals!
