Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) clutch?

[zack_76401]

when i take off in 1st or 2nd my truck is fine but when i shift into 3rd 4th or 5th the engine revs for a sec like its not hooked to the transmission or something... ... after the half sec rev its lik eit catches and runs like a speedin bullet... ... could this be my clutch, rear end, or what? i thought it could be my clutch slipping but i dont wanna spend the cash til i know... . any in puts appreciated... thanks

Sounds like the clutch to me. I didn't see a signature so I cant say what South Bend Clutch you sould run, but it should be a South Bend Clutch.

If you DON'T plan on upgrading to a high HP plate or injectors than a Con O will work for you (stock-to-400HP).



If you plan on a torque plate and injectors like I'm running then you will need a Con OFE.



You can get either at www.southbendclutch.com



Later this summer I will probably look into switching to a SBC. My TST is too grabby for me:{



I can wait till I pull a trailer with it! :-laf
