Stock clutch had started slipping so I installed a new one Saturday and found the throw out bearing contact surface worn like the pressure plate fingers had been in constant contact. Now the new clutch acts the same way, slipping under boost. The old clutch was definetly worn, but I'm wondering if maybe a sticking slave is keeping the pressure plate partially engaged, any ideas? Thanks.

Thought about it some more today. Could this be caused by the clutch disk wearing down so far that the fingers on the pressure plate ended up in constant contact with the throwout bearing?

What clutch did you replace it with, and what stage are you?

Wanted to go with the Vast that you suggested but got into a time crunch and got the stage 2 endurance full kit drop shipped form South Bend. Steel flywheel, disc, p/p, t/o bearing. Did the rear main while I was in there too.
