Default Shuddering.....
Ok guys if this is gonna stay like this I might have to go back to the auto. At first I just thought I needed to get back into the whole maual thing. Now I know thats not true. When I let the clutch out it will either shudder like hell til it gets moving (when I give it a lil gas) or ride and slip the clutch ( when I give it gas). Is this normal becuase of the cam I have in it. I haven't tuned the car since the cam install so I'm wondering if the tuning will help.

My 300 mile Ram Powergrip is still chattering. I'm hoping it goes away.

The cam has nothing to do with it, it's just clutch chatter. What gears are in your diff?

That's why I went from a Spec II to a ZO6 clutch package.

No Chatter!
