I bought a f1 stage 3 clutch kit for my t56 in my 2000 trans am
and it has about 900 miles on in since I put it in. Everything has worked
done in it but yesterday I was playing around in the car and I pushed it
up to around 85 in 3rd at about 4000 rpm and the car started to slip. What
do I need to fix this? I has the new clutch kit new slave cylinder new
master cylinder. The only thing that isn't new is the hose from the
master cylinder to the slave cylinder. i really need some help soon.

Unless you are just making a ton of hp, I would think that you have one of two things going on.

1. There is not proper clearance between the bottomed throw out bearing and the pressure plate. Read this: https://ls1tech.com/forums/manual-tr...need-shim.html

2. You have an oil leak which is getting directly on the clutch disk/flywheel surface. Oil getting onto the clutch disk can be due to a lack of sealant/loctite on the flywheel bolts or a damaged plug in the back of the crankshaft. I have seen guys damage the plug in their efforts to change the pilot bearing resulting in engine oil leaking directly onto the clutch disk.

Or, you could simply have a bad pressure plate...
