Default 12" Centerforce DF...

I was just wondering if anyone else was having problems getting their cars in gear, at higher RPM's, with this clutch. I've got a freshly beefed up T56, new McLeod master, new slave, etc....And I knew that there weren't many people with many miles on this clutch, back when I got it....just wanted to see if anyone else had any input

Thanks,

-Will

Yeah, have already been toying with it....plan some MORE adjusting/bleeding tomorrow, and hoping for the best....But if this doesn't cut it, I'm just gonna give the DFX a shot...

I just got a flashback from 2003. This sounds like the problem people were having a loooong time ago before they changed the design. This problem is the reason the CF clutches aren't very popular with the LS1 community. I wonder if you somehow got an old one? Maybe some other members from back then will recall this or had personal experience.
