So here's the deal:
- built 2.7 with Webers. All the tricks possible on this motor - rebuilt trans - new flywheel (not resurfaced!) - new 914 clutch - New TOB - new clutch cable Cable is adjusted so that engagement point is as close to the floor as possible. When I go above 4000 RPM, I get some serious clutch slip. So bad I can't really climb higher, although the car has a 7K limit. I'm thinking the stock 914 clutch can't hold it, even though it is a brand new clutch. Any ideas here? I do not believe it is making enough power to overwhelm the stock clutch, unless the stock clutch is super weak. |

Wouldn't want your dick stuck in all that motion (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) .
You should be fine with your set up,have you replaced all the consumable parts that go with the install,new release bearing slider pieces,clutch release arm ball cup for examples. Just got my car running recently and driving today ,replaced all parts in the clutch system and it all works great all 215 mm parts new pressure plate and clutch disk and excellent used flywheel from 914ltd. A leaking RMS will not get to your clutch so you need to look further,honestly something else is wrong,good luck. |
