Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Why can't I keep my foot out of it

[DarrellB]

Boy, when you exceed the holding power of the stock clutch it sure goes down hill fast.



The stock clutch sure doesn't like 850ftlbs + of torque does it



I thought I had enough self control to keep the PM turned off. (boy was I wrong)



I can now slip the clutch when passing cars on the expressway. (that's not good):{



I'll sure be glad when I get that new clutch.

Darrell,

Back when I had the stock transmission,

I installed 275's on top of the EZ, it was great! But the

transmission started hating that combination so I unplugged the EZ (that didnt last long) it got plugged back in 2 days later!



Yeah,

You need that new Clutch, it will make you faster (by not slipping).

Once you get the SBC then you'll need some more power to throw at it!!

P. S. I need more power too!!

Oh you mean...

You aren't driving like a grandma? Everytim eI follow you we poke along!LOL Just funnin with yah. Hey if you really want to see it slip we can take my DDs and put in there. That would be a good excuse to get BIGGER ones. LOL



I hope you get that clutch soon as I want to see what that "Original" machine can do in Lanesville.

i don't have as much power as you, but with the wastegate disabled and my stock plate forward, i can slip my transmission in OD. i REALLY don't want to put everything back to stock. :{ Mo PowaOo.

 

[DarrellB]

Soon, I hope

Should get the new clutch soon. And after that who knows, I'm thinking along the lines of More Power though.

Darrel you had better get that south bend soon. I would hate to blow smoke all over that nice blue truck.

[DarrellB]

What a sad day

Sunday after showing off for a freind of mine I had to take the PMax off the truck. :{ :{



I'm just afraid the clutch is going to go and leave me sitting somewhere I don't want to be.



I have to give the stock clutch some credit, it hung on alot longer than I thought it would. :{

Don't think of it as putting your foot in it, think of it as fully utilizing the go pedal. They would let it go to the floor if you were only supposed to go halfway would they?
