Default Clutch Slipping Help

Here the problem. I just recently ( well like 4-5 months ago) had Speed Inc rebuild my T-56 for me. They completely rebuilt it, spec stage 3 clutch, fidanza flywheel, upgraded hyrdaulics, Pro 5.0 shifter.

Well tonight while driving around the car started acting funny. It feels like the clutch is slipping, but i dont know how that could be, since i havent really beaten on the clutch that bad. I mean could it be something else? I was talking with my dad and he said it feels like there might not be enough pressure going through, cause when u drive it, it like revs up high, but you have to let the clutch almost all the way out for it to barely start creeping out.

Also when i was in 3rd i have it some gas, and the motor just revved up high and barely moved at all. So i dunno what else it could be? My buddy said it might just be low fluid, but i dont think thats it. I am going to call Speed Inc in the morning, but im just dreading its gonna be something major, so i was hoping someone on here could possibly help.

sounds like its slipping. You may have a leak bleeding of pressure. You can always try to bleed it and see if this helps before pulling the tranny. Check your fluids and look for any leaks.
