Mysterious WOT problem
Hello all! My 2000 Trans Am M6 with a LQ9 is having a odd spinning/slipping problem at WOT. It's a bolt, + SSRA induction box on an LQ9 with a GT2-3 cam (springs and hardened pushrods to come this weekend) with 119k miles. The tires i am running are 295 Sumitomo HTR Z III with around 1200 miles on them. So my problem is @ WOT during the warm weather or cold when i go to shift it spins no matter what the speed i'm shifting. I have to let off the throttle and repress it in order for to stop spinning or whatever it is doing. I am including a video and you can see it does it at 110 mph. The car has a LuK LS7 clutch kit with barely 2000 miles on it. It doesn't do it when i'm not shifting at WOT. Could these tires be that crappy, or is there a bigger problem? Any help would be appreciated.

So after messing around tonight i have found out it is the clutch slipping. which is odd since it drives around perfect but only slips when shifting fast. I was going 40 in 4th and floored it then quickly shifted to 5th and held on the gas and it just revved until i let off.

The clutch line is designed to do that by GM, there's a tutorial on here somewhere called "drill mod", the line is constricted so that the clutch can't "bang" between shifts. Pain in the ****!
