My clutch spins when given too much peddle espeially at low RPMs. Has always done this but now more so. Any recommendations? Thanks, Jeb

Your clutch is slipping form the sheer train-like low-end torque that the 3800SC makes. What clutch are you using?

can't remember the manufacturer or type but a stage II clutch. It was about 4 years back.

Yes, a stronger clutch but any recommendations on a type or manufacterer. It lookd like westcoast fiero is the only one who sells a clutch strong enough

Stupid question, but do they make Spec 3 clutches for the F-body flywheel? Where's a cheap place to order one?

The clutch you want will depend on what transmission you have, but a properly modified Fbody flywheel will mount a stock fiero clutch.

Thanks. This will be for an F23 transmission. Is there a make/model that I can ask for to get the clutch?
