New clutch but something still isnt quite right

[webshot]

I got a new clutch in, and it doesnt really feel like it is slipping but yet and still it isnt grabbing like it should either. Anything else I can check? Just doesnt seem like I am getting full pwer to the wheels. Its an 88 GT bone stock.

what kind of clutch? do you have an adjustable clutch cable or a firewall adjustor?

I got a OEM replacement. I think it is called exedy. No adjusters. Is it easy to install one of those?

If the point of engagement is real close to the top of the pedal travel, it might not be engaging all the way.

If the engagement is fairly low in the travel (near the floorboard), it might just need some time to bed in.

The flywheel was turned and all friction parts degreased prior to install?

Good luck.

Not sure of the install method used. The clutch engages rather low as you pointed out.

does the clutch feel like its slipping , like does the rpms move but the car doesnt follow 100%

Not really slippin that I can tell. But like I cannot get rubber in second, not even a chirp. I used to be able to do that in my other bone stock 50. This time the clutch just doesnt seem all there. Its hard to explain,. Thats why I was wondering if there was other things I can check.

If I missed it, how many miles are on the clutch? Organic disks are kinda mooshy sometimes while they bed-in.

As long as you know you are completely engaging the clutch (it sounds like you are - point of engagement near the floor is a good sign. If you check the cable at the fork and have a hair of slack in it, you know you're as loose as can be), you have done all you can.

If the break-in is proper and this doesnt go away after the break-in, contamination or a bad diaphram fingers could be the issue.

Good luck.

Put your foot on the clutch pedal and let it spring back up, i had a similar problem , my quad and all was stock and turned out i had to pull up on the pedal and here the click then it grabbed great . Just a suggestion

like 150 miles now. Mostly freeway. It felt a bit better today. I am thinking because I got a cheap oem replacement. I'll check the stuff you mentioned.

Thanks
