Hey Guys,

I just fixed up my combo and have been putting miles on it breaking it in.

I put a spec stage 2 and a stock resurfaced flywheel in.

After about 300 miles or so, the clutch chatters/shudders when leaving a dead stop in first.

Is this normal for a Spec? This is my first experience with Spec clutches so was just wondering.
