Default aussie clutch in.. car locks me out of gear.

ok what do ya'll think this might be.. i got the aussie clutch flywheel put in about 2 weeks ago.. driving around normal car goes into gear fine.

when i go WOT and shift.. it locks me out of the next gear.. no matter which gear it is.. its like hitting a metal wall.

i've tried several times to do 2nd gear romps and do the 2-3 shift that use to be cake. now it won't go in at all.

If your in Dallas, I'd go and show the fellas at Fastech. They are a distributor for Textralia and really know their stuff.

Sounds like its not releasing enough. I had this problem on my cartech and had to add spacers to make it work right.

Bleed the system more to get more slave movement, and thus more clutch disengagement. Or you might need to shim the TO bearing.
