Default spec 3..very touchy trying to get used to it

This clutch is crazy...very grabby..I like it but taking off in first is challenge so you don't get that chutter,,you barley have to push in the clutch while hitting the gas....I do have a built 6 speed and t-56 with a steel driveshaft so i think i'm cool...I almost got it down... but sometimes i forget and act like it's a regular clutch up in there....The sad thing is I had te same setup in my 1993 347 stroker GT 4 years ago...And it took me a while to get used too....Anyways,,,I just posted this to let you guys know i suck at takeoffs,,,everything else is like butter

after about 2000 miles that will be gone, you'll love it. It was my last clutch. some advise, give the car no gas on take off and baby it for about a 1000 miles. or rev it up to about 1200 rpm and let the clutch out at a normal pace, chutter will be gone. unless you have to back up, haha

No chatter here, but I have to slip it a lot. Love the thing so far. Not quite got 500 on it.
