well the next thing is the clutch i was thinking i was going to pick up a little power once the problem was figured out but im guessing it ws hurting the power alot because i floor it and the clutch does not even try and hold the power it jumps straight up to 6000 VS before it was holding

 

glad to hear you got it worked out

 

thanks cant wait to get clutch in it

 

We had the same alum wheel with both 3 and 3 plus, but i put a new insert in the wheel because you can't resurface an alum wheel. The 3 only lasted about 10k miles witch was not good, for the fact the wife drove it easy. But the 3 plus was only in the car a short time before i put the glide in. But it chattered from the start and with the solid engine mounts if felt really bad.

I know the twin disc stuff is $$ but if your goals are 9's shifting, it may be money well spent. That was part of our problem, 1000 clutch or 1500 glide. Plus i was not happy with our 5 spd.

He has done every tranny i've ever had. Great price, good parts and he gives you what you need. I had the tranny and he built it with the sfi ford bell for around $1300 then i bought a PTC converter.

I had the same glide in my rambler for 6 years, i had him freshen it up after year 5 because it had been 5 years!! Street driven alot and ran 9.50's with low 1.3 sixty's .

OMG!! There is a couple of bike owners walking around with a sore ass this morning.LOL!!Slipping clutch and not a perfect tune and still rode out like a beast.can"t wait to ride in your car with a good clutch bro.

 

yea that shit was funny you know when he rolled up on me the last thing he was thinking was i was going to walk from his ass like i did.bitch was made at the light he didnt even look over or say anything.i guess he took it personal

 

noo dont do that I have a Turbo'd 94 and i have it carbed cause i had the same issue w/ it dropping boost at high rpms and hitting a wall when it was EFI. But now its been an issue trying to get it tuned right and the drive ability sux w/ the carb! But it deff made a world of a difference converting it over! Just got to find the right person to tune a blow through carb!!!!!

 

im all good now it was the dizzy now its the clutch that wont hold im not going carb im staying EFI
