Default Spec Stage 3 Clutch Prob

I just got done doing heads, cam, clutch and flywheel, 160 therm, slp long tubs, and a 80mm throtle. I got the car dyno tunned today and I got 408 which i was hoping for more but thats pretty good. I have have a a loud tick commin from the heads which i think is eather the rods,rockers, or lifters. I have new rods and lifters but kept the stock rockers. Any one have the same problem with this issue becasue this tick is driving me nuts.

As for the clutch, I installed it right and now i can not powershift at all. This really pisses me off becasue this is my strong point at the track. If i hold the gas all the way and shift sometimes i get second but never third unless i let off the pedal. I never had this prob with the stock clutch. I could hit second and third all day. Does anyone have any ideas on this issue as well???

Thanks

try doing the drill mod to the end of the master if you already havent. that really helped with mine on the spec 3+ ive heard you cant powershift a spec without it.

Whoever you heard that from was bullshitting you! I've got the stock master and stock slave and have never had any problems power shifting thru the gears.

Default Did you break in the clutch???

I just had my SPEC clutch 3 installed on my ride. Did you break it in before the dyno tune? My tuner recommended I break in the clutch before I dyno tune my ride. Got some heads and a cam.

I e-mailed SPEC too and they also recommended that I break her in before the dyno tune.

I also repalced the slave and hydraulic clutch reservoir.
