Lowered tire pressure to 20-22 and next pass and still spun first and 2nd, blew off the half inch hose off the intake manifold to the brake booster causing a huge boost leak but continued in it, shifted to 4th gear and through the traps the clutch pedal dropped to the floor.

The throwout bearing retaining clip popped off so I reconnected the brake booster line started the car in gear and drove out shifting the car with no clutch like a semi truck driver! LOL We will have to pull it out and reinforce the TOB clip when we get a chance. Either that or move to a push style clutch with no TOB clip.

Fathouse is having alot of success with the QM twin. If you don't mind the harsh engagement for street driving it might be your best bet.

In that case I hope for both our sakes the larger master cylinder fixes the no lift shifting issue on the Spec clutch.

When are you going to the track next?
