I have adjusted the cable to the best of my abilities and I still can't get this thing to hold. It slips at less than half throttle. I don't think it can be a worn out clutch its only got 1000 miles on it or so. And the engine only has like 150 horse. What else can I look at/adjust to get this working.

Do the basics....double nut on the cable, adjust the cable so that the pedal has free play so that the "feel" is about 1-2 inches before you feel pressure when pushing in.....CLUTCH SHOULD ENGAGE about 2-3 inches from the floor...assuming you have a good pedal board.

If the clutch is still slipping....check the adjustments and pedal again. Two things...the tube inside the tunnel could have popped a weld or two....or the clutch disc is inproperly installed and/or has oil on it....
