Default I just cant figure out my problem

I have a 2001 camaro ss m6 and I keep messing up my rear end... Originally when I bought the car it had the wrong kind of gear in it so I didnt have anti-lock breaks so I got another gear put on by my cousin it was a used 4:10 and that blew. Then I got that rebuilt and it blew again. Now I got a completely new one put in and its not catching right its seems to be slipping in first and not catching properly in 3rd and 4th. I dont really beat on the car, I dont take it to the track and I rarely take off ***** wild from the line. Are these gears just that bad or do I just suck at driving a stick or something? One other thing my clutch is very heavy for alot of horse power but im not sure what kind it is it came in the car when I bought it but it deffinatly catches right away and you have to use your whole leg to push it in would this put wear on the gear?

Sound like you are describing multiple problems there.
First of the stock 7.5 rear is a POS. Specially w/ a 4 series gear, the pinon gets pretty small=easy breakage.
It keeps going out? taking gears out bearing what in the diff? Is it being set up propely?
If you pedal is releasing right off the floor you might have hydraulic clutch release issues.
Then if it is slipping may also have clutch issues itself as well.
Sounds like you have quite the bag of worms there........
