What causes this to happen? I have a TSP Torquer v2 112lsa, headers, ORY, pulley, tune, LS6 intake, SFCs, and new textralia clutch.
Problem for me is when I let out the clutch, sometimes the the whole engine and tranny shake so bad back and forth that that the y-pipe gets to bangin. I was beginning to wonder if my motor and tranny mounts are too spongey or broken. It doesn't happen all the time but I get some vibration letting out the clutch most of the time. It's just that sometimes the vibration is minimal and other times it's like a earth quake and my y-pipe bangs.
Is my clutch mis adjusted? Any help is appreciated.

Lots of things can cause that. The low RPM & high resistance to getting the car moving with a bigg lopping cam for instance.
Or a big cam'd car with stock 3.42's.
It is likely more of the fact that the motor is lugging getting going. If you slipped the clutch more it would be less. But you clutch wear would increase.
It is up to indivdual preference in driving a manual trans.

Ok. I could do 3.73s but not wanting to go to 4.10s really. I just don't feel like shifting that much. Don't know about low RPM when I let the clutch out. I've been practically chirping and lurching forward letting it out now.

When I'm at a stand still it vibrates like that, not when i'm driving. I know all about the vibration from letting out the clutch and I only have a 224 cam.
But when I just sit and rev the motor it seems to vibrate more than usual maybe it's just me though....

mines doing the same thing, its violent as hell sometimes. If i quickly let out the clutch tho it wont do it, so im chirping the tires constantly now, lol. But i would also like to know what this is. When ive heard of people talking about chatter i didnt get the impression it was that bad, so im not sure if its chatter. Only does it from a stop, shifter gears it fine

So what would cause vibration like that when I'm not even moving?
