So here's the deal:
- built 2.7 with Webers. All the tricks possible on this motor - rebuilt trans - new flywheel (not resurfaced!) - new 914 clutch - New TOB - new clutch cable Cable is adjusted so that engagement point is as close to the floor as possible. When I go above 4000 RPM, I get some serious clutch slip. So bad I can't really climb higher, although the car has a 7K limit. I'm thinking the stock 914 clutch can't hold it, even though it is a brand new clutch. Any ideas here? I do not believe it is making enough power to overwhelm the stock clutch, unless the stock clutch is super weak. |

Could be a bad pressure plate too, unless you poured lots of oil on the dick
