ok i did a aod to t5 swap. the car start and revs fine, the flywheel has been resurfaced and the clutch is a new spec, used alinement tool and did everthing right i thought ...... but when the car is in gear (any gear) and i start to let the clutch out the car shakes bad. bad enough i don't think i should try to drive it. it would seem something isn't right, the clutch is the only thin i can think of. i need some help thanks

Not the first time someone has had chattering with a Spec. What stage (we are assuming a Stage 1)?

im not being an ass....but lets get the specifics out of the way first. you do know how to drive stick correct? if so than i would blame it on the spec clutch.

since so many people complain about clutch chatter why dont they change something out in their clutch building process. i could think of two things that would help get rid of the chatter
