The flywheel pictured below has 5k miles on it along with a new pressure plate, clutch disc, throw out bearing, etc.
Clutch slips under full immediate throttle from a healthy four. What are all the "spots" an indication of? Attached image(s) |

Even though, it's new, it's the probally the pressure plate, are there any spots or blueing on the plate, the clutch disk, looks to have plenty of meat, the plate provides the clamping force, but the clutch was slipping, so no clamping force.
It looks like it wasn't a whole lot of grease, what there was, was burnt off Is it the picture? Or is your flywheel missing the alignment pins for the pressure plate (3 0f them)? Look at your plate, where the T O Bearing rides, all the tangs should be the same height, all the way around, if there are some of them that seem to be lower than the rest, there's your problem.
