Tonight on the way home I had my foot on the clutch pedal in between shifts. Just pushing enough to take up the slack but not slipping the clutch. I was getting on it pretty good. Definately in my "is it going to hold?" zone. Everytime I got on it the clutch pedal pushed back. If I drove more normal nothing. I'm wondering if the DMF setup somehow flexes and pushes the slave back so far it jambs causing a hard pedal. Now I already know the cure, drop the DMF, but I'd like to hear from both other DMF and solid flywheelers if they experince the same thing.

Ya DMF going bad mine did the same thing I could twist the half over a 1/4 in with out hitting the springs and I could put a 1/4 in scrwdriver (the wide part of the blade) between the two halfs. I have pics if any one wants to see. And i absoultly love the SBC clutch even with the grabby ness that it has. ya just have to get use to it
