[QUOTE="bigwave, post: 15651100, member: 179097"] First off, thanks a ton guys for tuning in, I know this is a "beat to death" topic. I know the car has a centerforce in it now, or I think it does because I can see that it is orange through the cable cover. And it's SUPER stiff, I drove my buddies 99 Saleen last night and his clutch is 1/3 the peddle pressure, his car is still fully stock and I know not the same HP / engine. Don't take me wrong, I'm not looking to spend $$$ I don't need to, if this clutch wasn't slipping I'd not even consider changing it. A little back ground for more advice. I replaced the quadrant and added a firewall adjuster (UPR Billet model), and put a new Ford OEM cable on; in an attempt to relieve some of the clutch pressure and it did help, I'm going to say 25% less force. It is fine by me, I'm 6-3 205-lb, but my son is 5-10 150 and he really complains and I'll admit it is hard to press, but doable. After doing that I can't get the clutch to adjust but to outer most hook on quadrant and Firewall adjuster all the way in and clutch is at the very top as opposed to being 2.5-3.5" off the floor. On another note, my tentative plan is Mcleod RST 26 spline and tremec's input shaft. Not sure I want to take a chance on a less expensive input shaft but, $430 seems high. [/QUOTE]
