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.

Also did you have the flywheel surfaced @ clutch replacement? Did you give the measurements of what you wanted to have the 3 surfaces machined to?

Another sort of on the line of Mike's Bent broken throw out arm? shot plastic ball cup in throw out arm? Pivot ball not set at correct hieght?

My car doesn't make that much horsepower but.... I can't get the clutch to hardly slip at the Autocross events in a hard launch 3500 RPM and damn near side step pedal. I do get some wheel spin if it is sandy or didn't line up in the Vette cleaned tire track. As the tires hook I just mat it till 2nd gear shift and mat it some more.
