Mr. Know it all is stumped. What's this world coming to?

There should be no question that it's warrentied. It was definitely slipping by the heat marks. Probably caused my the shit tick master but still there setup.
I could easilly get it warrentied but it wasn't bought threw us.

How are you talking to them? I never have problems with warrenty's but talk to them nicely.

Install is #1 and the #1 problem when clutches fail. There is alot to do with installing a clutch right other than just bolting it down. There are measurements that have to be made and some adjustments that should be done.It sounds easy but we see a ton of failures due to installs.

By the pics yours looks like extreme slipage. Could be a bad pressure plate, flywheel not bolted down flat or torque'd, or badly adjusted master cylinder.

Right now the best clutch out there is the Mcleod RXT.

don give me a call I have to jump on some thing. Going to take weeks to get this thing back even if they do warranty it. I have been very polite to them and patient offering any info they requested and photos. I even told them my exact launching and burn out procedure and they said that sounded fine. I torqued it down to there pattern in the torque sequence that they gave me in the intervals listed in the instructions. also cleaned the flanges. I was told by them that I did not have to check the slave depth so I did not. i used red lock tight on the bolts and I adjusted the master so it just had full disengagement about a 1/4 of the stroke from the floor. tick told me with the monster that is how it should be done. I have installed many clutches and this is the first one I have had that went bad I dont know what I could have done differently to prevent what had happened
