So far so good as for mine.

No high speed lock out, and the warmer you get the clutch the more it grabs, just like a RPS clutch.

Slightly more than stock clutch pedal feel. It will shimmy slightly when new...once broke in engagement is smooth.

only 1000 miles on it so far...no drag racing yet.

 

Keep us posted.

 

Erik sold me the clutch, and yes these clutches require a longer break-in time than others.

But that was fine, because i had the transmission rebuild and needed break-in, along with a new motor. It all kinda worked out.

Currently i am rethinking the whole fuel system to a Radium surge tank setup, PTFE hoses and E85 sensor for the standalone, Infinity or Fitronic system.

Next is ACD relocation and Transmission cooler install.

 

What was your break in period like?

I am in the same boat as you, and am curious as to what you did.

Also, what fluid are you running in your 6 speed? I know Shep had recommended Redline Lightweight Shockproof, but I read about a guy who did that and it gummed up his transmission and plugged up the galleys.

 

The first 100-200, The clutch will shimmy a bit, and engagement/slip will be will hard to predict. Even stalled it once myself.

But stick with periodic stop and go's, and lax shifting during that time (no 8k RPM shifts). Stay away from LA traffic at all costs.

I have the same Gear ratio as you, so shift points will be strange....it was for me. Highway speeds around 65-70, 6th gear actually seemed kinda tall. Stuck it out in 5th so i could keep some boost on for piston ring break-in.
Once Broke-in the engine got stronger, and 6th was better to cruise in at such speeds.

I went though about 4 oil changes and 6 filters in 1000 miles, Cutting open each filter. Normal break-in wear, nothing big thankfully. Now Switched to full synthetic Valvoline VR-1 20w-50.


As for fluids in the transmission, i have Switched twice (500 mile Intervals), with two different fluids. The Stock Diaqueen MR fluid and the GM Part#12346191(Rebottled Syntorque according to dealers), The Diaqueen shifted the best.
The new gears 3rd and 4th will be slightly louder on deceleration. No idea if that is normal, but it should go away after the second oil change if you experience this.

 

Interesting that the DiaQueen worked better for you than the rebottled SynTorq. I'll try both as well.

Thanks for the info.
