Re: New clutch and break -in process I'd drive it easy for the first 100 miles or so (if it's a street car). Don't pull out of the shop and start doing burnouts....you can glaze the clutch and then you'll have problems. Just give it some time, drive through downtown, lots of easy starts and such before you hammer it. Or, call the manufacturer and ask for their recommendations....Centerforce said 500 miles of use before "beating" on it....good luck!

Re: New clutch and break -in process I broke in my star spec stage 3 clutch for a good 500 miles at least, DO NOT SLIP IT what ever you do, that will ruin the surface early on, then later down the road when you go for those high rpm shifts it will slip, and you don't need that after spending $ on a new clutch...
