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.

Someone else did the clutch change before I got the car, but from what I know it has all new parts, nothing was resurfaced and it was done by someone very knoledgeable with Porsche's. He says it was fine last time he drove it. Then it sat for 2 years. It is the stock 901 tranny and clutch stuff. As far as clutch engagement it seems like it is way too high off the floor before it engages. Like it starts to grab just past the halfway point as your lifting your foot up then as its fully engaged there is about an inch more of travel left. Where the cable is at the tranny there are 3 nuts. I adjusted it both ways where there wasn't any slack and again where there was as much slack as I could give it and it didn't make any noticeable difference. The cable only adjusted about a half inch.
